It is expected that two calls for ESF funding will be launched for the Humber LEP area under Priority Axis 2.1 (Enhancing Equal Access to Lifelong Learning) in late May 2016. The ESF calls will be published on the gov.uk website at the following link where the current ERDF calls can be found. https://www.gov.uk/european-structural-investment-funds
