Now in our 6th decade since starting in 1972, Generate has been dedicated to creating opportunity, choice, and support for people with a wide range of learning disabilities. Our mission has always been to support people to live life fully and to continue to grow and develop within diverse communities.

A current and key area of our focus is Employment across London and beyond, we work in close collaboration with a range of stakeholders and commercial partners to deliver supported internships as a pathway to paid employment and a career.

Generate has been building stakeholder partnerships at the forefront of supported employment internships for young people with learning disabilities since 2018. We are proud that an approximately of 70 % of interns transitioned successfully into paid employment. This translates into real change: reducing reliance on services and increasing agency in positive, self-directed outcomes.
