Social Care in Lancashire. The organisation manages the workforce development
grants which support employers by making funds available for staff training and
development with an ultimate purpose of improving Social Care in Lancashire for
service users by valuing and investing in the Social Care workforce.
Over the past seven years, with extensive support from Lancashire County Council
and other partners, LWDP has established itself within the sector and has become
the central point for its stakeholders to gain information, training funding and
support.
This website is the gateway to careers, training and funding opportunities for
the Lancashire independent Social Care sector.
