Of the 18 prime providers, CDG is the only charity given this status in London and one of only two in the whole of the UK.

The government has given the charity a great opportunity to show how CDG can make a major impact in helping people back into work or onto the employment ladder for the first time. In London East, CDG will be been supporting nearly 60,000 people on their journey into work over the next five years.

In London East, the charity works with a range of delivery partners and menu partners delivering specialist support to those who need extra help.

Being a charity itself, CDG realises that it has to lead by example, which is why it is supporting the third sector through its supply chain in London East. For example, of its 14 end to end delivery partners six are reigstered charities, four are private companies and two are public.
