UTILISING FUNDING TO SUPPORT COMMUNITIES
These high-impact programmes have led to over 1,000 people being engaged in a career in construction, with almost 800 of those people taking part in a training programme to get them employment and site ready.
OUR AWARDED FUNDING
HUMBER CONSTRUCTION HUB
In early 2019 we were awarded funding from the Department for Education (DfE), managed through the Construction Industry Training Board (CITB) and the Humber Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP) to provide a construction training facility in the Humber. Managed through our group partner EN:Able Futures CIC, our Humber Construction Hub (HCH) has been established.
HCH has delivered 1,047 level 1, 2 and 3 qualifications since the funding was awarded and a further 1,438 employability interventions, such as mentoring, work experience, site visits and employability workshops.

CONSTRUCTION SKILLS 4 LIFE
EN:Able Communities’ CS4L (Construction Skills 4 Life) entry level construction training courses at the Humber Construction Hub ran from November 2021 to May 2022. The programme was made possible thanks to funding provided by two grants from B&CE through the Mowlem Award and the ESF Community Grants programme. EN:Able Communities were successful in their application for £20k grant funding from the Humber Learning Consortium ESF fund.
The funding paid for the training of 28 people in the Hull city area with barriers to training and employment to boost their job prospects and social mobility. The programme of 5 x 2-week courses held over 6 months was a great success. Learners who were previously unemployed were supported to gain entry level qualifications in basic skills required to work on construction sites.
PATHWAYS INTO CONSTRUCTION​
CITB funding was secured through the Pathways Into Construction initiative to deliver a program for individuals Not In Education, Employment or Training (NEETs) in West Yorkshire.
The Construction Skills 4 Life (CS4L) programme was facilitated by our partners at EN:Able Futures CIC and was targeted towards learners aged between 16 and 24 in the 2019/2020 period.
