Provision of Partner services for Big Lottery Fund Building Better Opportunities (BBO) Berkshire programme

Provision of Partner services for Big Lottery Fund Building Better Opportunities (BBO) Berkshire programme Workers' Educational Association Contract Reference Number WEA 44 The Big Lottery Fund in England has launched a new grant programme called Building Better Opportunities (BBO).

This is a joint programme of European funding (European Social Fund) and our lottery money.

The investment is focusing on supporting people into employment.

We want to support all applicants to Building Better Opportunities with good practice information about how to help people into employment.

We believe that information already exists, but is not easily accessible.

We want this brought together into a single, engaging, plain English resource for BBO applicants.
