European Social Fund in England

ESF Plaques

All Co-financing Organisations, other ESF beneficiaries and projects (including those that are match funded) are required to display ESF plaques that show the EU flag and the support of the European Union. Co-financing Organisations and other beneficiaries are required to display the plaque at their main office, and their providers at the main location(s) at which each project is delivered to participants.

The plaques are constructed from sustainable materials. They must be positioned in a prominent location where they are clearly visible to staff, participants and others using the building.

Distribution arrangements

The Department for Work and Pensions (the managing authority) has produced plaques for Co-financing Organisations, and for other beneficiaries and providers.

These plaques have been distributed to ESF Co-financing Organisations and other ESF beneficiaries, who will forward the project plaques to providers free of charge.

ESF providers with any queries about plaques and/or distribution arrangements should contact their ESF Co-financing Organisation or funder. If necessary, ESF beneficiary organisations should contact us for further information about distribution arrangements.
