  • Trailblazer Participant Information Sheet

    The Get Britain Working Trailblazer is funded by central UK government and led locally by the Mayoral Strategic Authority/Welsh Government. The trailblazer is intended to help people to move towards employment who are currently not working or looking for work.

    We would like to invite you to take participate in this support. The decision to participate is entirely up to you, but before you decide we would like you to understand what taking part involves.

    The person who gave you this form will go through it with you, to help you decide whether you would like to take part. Please ask if you have any questions, or if there is anything you do not understand.

    The Participant Agreement Information Sheet tells you the purpose of the trailblazer and what participation will mean for you.

We or DWP may work with an expert research organisation to complete evaluation activities.
