Shaping employment services as a charity: Insights from Shaw Trust

How can health, employment and local services work together to support people facing complex barriers to work?

In this interview, Julie Leonard, Chief Impact Officer at Shaw Trust, shares how the organisation is working with the West London Alliance to create a more joined-up approach to employment support, including a single front door, coordinated referrals and shared customer pathways.

Interviewed by Linda O’Halloran, Senior Partner at TPXimpact, Julie discusses the growing relationship between health and unemployment, the challenges of data sharing and devolution, and why stronger collaboration across government, health services, local authorities and community providers is essential to improving outcomes and reducing friction for the people who need support.
