Employers

There are nearly 8 million working aged people in the UK who have a disability or mental health condition. We strongly believe these adults have the right to work, and to benefit from employment experiences.

We are a Disability Confident Leader and champion diversity in the workplace. We work with other organisations to promote and sustain more inclusive workforces and find opportunities for our trainees to work.

Work Placements & Job Trials

We work with businesses in a range of Hospitality sector environments to facilitate work placements and job trials for our trainees. We guide and support employers to promote inclusion and diversity and sustain these values in their workforce.

Contact us to find out more about our ‘PATHS’ employability programme providing supported employment opportunities for adults with disabilities or mental health conditions to access and stay in work.
