Completing the Toolkit

当地珍宝相信工作对你有好处，特别是在你变老的时候。工作让你身体健康，经济独立，并融入社会。随着人们年龄的增长，他们想要工作的方式也会改变。出于各种各样的原因，比如照顾责任、健康和爱好，他们需要更多的灵活性。大多数工作机会不允许完全的灵活性，这意味着许多老年人在50多岁和60岁时就永远离开了工作场所。当地宝藏的存在为50岁以上的人提供完全灵活的工作机会，做园艺、清洁、杂工服务、陪伴、遛狗等等。工人通过我们专有的自动匹配平台接受工作。当地宝藏在汉普郡的各个城镇运营。在过去的几年里，我们一直在构建一个工具包，以便在英国的任何地方启动和运营本地宝藏。该工具包包括一个全自动匹配平台、数字和本地营销计划以及客户支持和福利计划。还有一个优秀的最终工具来完成工具包：\*工人支持和福利计划。这个Innovate UK项目允许我们通过为最终工具开发技术创新来**完成工具包**。它可以分为两个部分：1.大使支持阶段1-已完成\*在每个城镇阶段2-正在进行的技术创新与真正的面对面支持相结合大使元素的成功对于制定业务计划以特许经营方式推出当地珍宝至关重要。为此，我们将创建一个互动门户网站，在我们逐个城镇推出时加入和发展特许经营商。2.工作保障\*技术解决方案，旨在激励长期预订，并在企业规模扩大时为其提供电子商务解决方案。加盟商互动门户网站是继大使计划第一阶段成功后该项目的延伸。这是工具包中的最后一个工具，使本地宝藏能够在英国各地的城镇推出和运营。在这个项目期间，我们将在英国各地的新城镇推出，在这样做的过程中，将为225名老年人提供灵活的本地工作机会。未来的扩展**完成工具包**项目，将确保我们有一个经过测试和测试的工具包，通过特许经营网络推出本地宝藏，并将使我们能够在英国各地的城镇扩展，并为数以千计的老年人提供灵活工作的机会。

Local Treasures believes that work is good for you, especially as you age. Work keeps you fit and healthy, financially independent and socially included.As people get older, the way they want to work changes. For a wide variety of reasons, such as caring responsibilities, health and hobbies they demand more flexibility. Most work opportunities do not allow complete flexibility, which means many older adults leave the workplace for good in their 50s and 60\.Local Treasures exists to provide completely flexible work opportunities for the over 50s, doing gardening, cleaning, handymen services, companionship, dog walking and more.The jobs are accepted by the worker via our proprietary automated matching platform.Local Treasures operates in towns across Hampshire. Over the past few years, we have been building a toolkit to launch and operate Local Treasures from anywhere in the UK.The toolkit encompasses a fully automated matching platform, a digital and local marketing programme and a customer support and benefits programme.There is one final tool outstanding to complete the toolkit:\* worker support and benefit programme.This Innovate UK project allows us to **Complete the toolkit** by developing technical innovation for the final tool. It can be split into two parts:1\. Ambassador supportStage 1 - completed\* A blend of tech innovation with real, in-person support in each town Stage 2 - In progressThe success of the Ambassador element has been critical in developing the business plan to launch Local Treasures as a franchise operation.To do this, we will create an interactive web portal to onboard and develop franchisees as we launch town by town. 2\. Job security\* Technical solution to incentivise longer term bookings and to provide an e-commerce solution to the business as it scales.The franchisee interactive web portal is an extension of the project following on from the success of Stage 1 of the Ambassador programme. It is the final tool in the tool kit required to enable Local Treasures to launch and operate town by town across the UK.We will launch into new towns across the UK for the duration of this project and in doing so, will provide 225 older adults with flexible, local work opportunities.Future scaling**Completing the toolkit** project, will ensure we have a tried and tested toolkit to launch Local Treasures using a franchise network and will enable us to scale town by town across the UK and to provide thousands more older workers with access to flexible work.
