Worcester Community Trust - Wellbeing Jobs Club Evaluation Report

In July 2024, Worcester Community Trust (WCT) commissioned the University of Worcester to conduct an independent evaluation of their Lottery-funded Wellbeing Jobs Club service. This service aims to enhance confidence, improve mental health, and support local residents in securing employment. The program currently serves 150 participants who are referred by a variety of local agencies.
WCT requested an assessment of the Wellbeing Jobs Club’s quality and effectiveness, as well as a comparison with similar statutory services. The findings from this evaluation will be shared with stakeholders, including funders, the WCT board, referral partners, and participants. The objective is to gather feedback that can inform potential improvements to the service or its monitoring processes.
