Employability Grant Programme
A new Employability Grants Programme has been launched in East Lothian to provide grant funding for 2026-27
The East Lothian Local Employability Partnership is looking for engaging and innovative projects that will increase the offer of employability provision across East Lothian. This will help to reduce unemployment and increase income through employment. The programme is part of the Scottish Government's No One Left Behind model.
An information session is being held at 11am on Thursday 22 January 2026 via Microsoft Teams where you can find out more about the Employability Grants Programme and how to apply.
Applications will open on Monday 12 January and completed application forms should be submitted no later than 5pm Friday 6 February 2026.
