The Future of Communities First
From April 2012 Communities First will run as a Community Focussed Programme supporting the Welsh Government’s Anti-Poverty Agenda. It will support the most disadvantaged people in our most deprived areas with the aim of contributing to alleviating persistent poverty. Focussed on community-supported actions, it will work alongside other programmes to narrow the education, skills, economic and health gaps between the most deprived and more affluent areas of Wales. In relation to education and skills, the focus will be on supporting work that will ultimately improve the employability of individuals.
