We can help you to achieve your own work goals, whether that means applying for voluntary or paid placements. We work closely with employers who employ or are considering employing people with a learning disability.
Into Work will explore your work aspirations with you, determining working options and consulting with employers to increase the number of options available to you. To increase achievement and outcomes, we work alongside people, shadowing where appropriate, and giving on-going encouragement and feedback until their confidence and strengths grow.
