Notices to providers
Dear Provider,
In December we asked for your help in launching the new Youth Contract by supplying details of your key partners - employers that you work closely with who would be happy to pledge their support for the new programme and take advantage of what's on offer.
We are contacting the employers you told us about to encourage them to pledge their support through the Youth Contract website www.dwp.gov.uk/youth-contract/.
DWP will keep in contact with employers who sign up to pledge their support and the website will provide regular updates on how to get involved in the programme.
I attach the letter we are sending asking for pledges (2MB) 
. Please feel free to copy to any of your other partners or contacts you think might be interested.
Thank you
Mark Staley
Contracted Customer Services Directorate
