Employment

Everyone who is able to work deserves a job that welcomes and supports them. This can be more challenging for people with additional needs and disabilities. However, these challenges can be overcome with the right training and support.

You should also check our pages about further education. These are courses that can help young people and adults:

  • learn skills and knowledge for a job
  • get hand-on experience
  • receive support based on their level of need

Further education isn't needed to get a job. However, it can help when applying and lets young people and adults explore their interests.
