Hard times? Tell us the score.

Do you have any information about how current economic downturn is affecting MEAN clients? We would like to compile any anecdotes, case studies, quotes, or statistics you may have about how your client groups are faring as the cost of living spirals. What about your own services? Are you facing the possibility of reducing service provision due to increasing cost of delivery? We will compile any information you have into a report, which will help us to jointly respond to changing needs. Please contact the MEAN Co-ordinator directly:

Who are we?

The Midlothian Employment Action Network is a partnership of public, private and voluntary sector agencies, which aims to support people who face barriers in the labour market to prepare for, find and stay in meaningful employment.

We do this by:

Taking a partnership approach to better meet the needs of clients;

Coming together through regular meetings and conferences to share good practice, identify common issues and plan new services;

Jointly accessing funding from a range of sources to deliver new services and create new opportunities;

Providing the information, training and support to meet the needs of employers and potential employees;

Providing an up-to-date online portal for information about all aspects of employability.
The network will also provide agencies based in and / or working in Midlothian with a stronger collective voice at a regional level, in terms of buying into wider employment focused initiatives and attracting new resources to the area.
