Job Coaching 

Job coaching can be key to support people at work who have additional physical needs, as well as moderate or severe learning disabilities.

A Job Coach can:

• encourage and empower you to actively participate in meaningful employment
• support your colleagues and managers in how best to work with you
• build up your skills and independence at work so that you no longer need their support

Our job coaches work jointly with you and employers to give you the opportunity to:

• complete work experience
• undertake a work trial
• work for the first time
• offer extra support in your current job and help you increase performance and productivity.

Job coaches can be paid for through direct payments, or we can support with applications to the Government’s Access to Work programme.
