Our Future Jobs project
This project aimed to minimise barriers faced by learning disabled adults to employment. The full programme included everyone having a professional video CV made for them, showed at a Celebration event. Community trips included pizza making at Pizza Express, visits to Magna science museum, a theatre tour. The project increased the wellbeing, confidence and aspirations of participants, providing exciting insights into different industries, jobs and professions, encouraging creative thinking about work. The project’s success led to approval of continued funding.
