Employment support service

Our Employment Support service helps people with diagnosed or undiagnosed disabilities (covering neurodiversity, mental health, sensory needs or learning and physical disabilities) to find sustainable paid employment, education or training. Specialist advisors work closely with each individual, adapting the service to their needs and providing ongoing personal support until they are fully established in their roles.

We also work alongside businesses to provide tailored support in helping individuals reach their potential as valuable employees and team members. Working together, we can promote greater diversity and opportunity throughout Hertfordshire and help our communities and local businesses become more inclusive and Disability Confident.

If you would like to find out about how we can help you or someone you know, please complete the enquiry form and someone from the team will contact you to discuss your individual needs.
