Until 20 December it's Disability History Month, so we've put together a brief list of where you can find all our resources designed specifically to support those with disabilities and health conditions.
Is this all we have to offer? Disability support is embed across all our work (check out section 5 of Your Career Planning Guide, for example) but the following resources are just for you:
On the Help Centre
Our disabilites webpage contains information on your employment rights and support on gaining work experience and getting in to work.
Access to Work
Help is available for people with a disability, physical or mental health condition to start and stay in employment through the Government’s Access to Work Programme. It offers practical and financial support. Watch our brand new webinar to find out how it can help you.
Change 100
Change 100 is a flagship programme of paid summer work placements, professional development and mentoring by Leonard Cheshire. It aims to remove barriers experienced by disabled people in the workplace, to allow them to achieve their potential.
- Apply for the Change 100 programme on OpportunityHub
- Watch our webinar with them from 2018
- Join one of their upcoming webinars on the 10 December 3-4.30pm or 17 December 5-6pm
