Company Description
Catch22 exists to help build a society where everyone has a good place to live, good people around them, and a fulfilling purpose. We call these our '3Ps'.
We achieve this in two ways. First we improve lives on the frontline through delivery of public services. Secondly, we use our knowledge to change 'the system', to fix the complex web that can trap and disempower those it was set up to help.
The Catch22 Employability & Skills division are committed to supporting people to find their purpose and thrive. Whether that’s helping them gain qualifications and vital life skills in our Colleges and through our NCS programmes, or supporting them in their search for sustainable employment, the division works collaboratively to deliver impact in all the spheres they operate.
Learning & Skills
Catch22 College is the collective name for 10 sites we have across the country, which deliver academic and vocational training programmes for young people aged 16+ who, for whatever reason, are not suited to a mainstream college setting.
The NCS Community Grants Programme is an all-year-round programme, which helps to develop the employability, independent living, and social action skills of participants.
Employability
We work with employers and individuals to provide sustainable jobs for everyone. Through
our local and national partnerships, our services help people who have struggled to find work through conventional routes.
