Speak to an adviser

Access to Employment is delivered by the Lancashire Employment & Skills Executive Partnership. If you are looking for work, training or a change of direction, our advisers can talk you through what is available in your area before you commit to anything.

  • Free, confidential conversations with a named contact
  • Support for jobseekers, employers and referring organisations
  • Clear information about eligibility and what to bring to a first meeting
