– Support for increased independence for disabled people
– Creating jobs through social enterprise
– Working in partnership with employers, local authorities and health trusts
Many of our services are tailored to the specific requirements of people with issues such as mental ill health, substance misuse problems or learning disability.
Additionally, we offer a large variety of services for organisations, including:
– Web Accessibility Training and Testing
– A Staying in Work Service to support vulnerable members of staff
