Self employment

Picture
Self-employment and small business ownership is becoming an increasingly popular route to work for people with learning difficulties interested in using their skills and talents to create their own employment opportunities.

We have been supporting people to explore self employment, social enterprises and co-operative options for over 30 years and have developed a range of tools resources and guides to help people on their business journey. 

We work with
  • Supported employment providers and Job Coach teams 
  • Department for Work and Pensions
  • Local authorities
  • Colleges
  • Voluntary sector organisations

Thinking about self employment?

Our Rapid Enterprise Development (RED) site includes guides for people interested in exploring an enterprise idea. For more information please go to www.rapid-enterprise.co.uk

Projects

We have recently been asked to work with the ​InclusiVET project which aims to improve the capacity of Vocational Education & Training (VET) schools in Latin America and Europe in order to to better support the entrepreneurship and employability of disabled artists.
This includes supporting the development of joint curricula and across different countries and fostering greater collaboration between VET institutions, disability activists and organisations from across the private and public sectors.

We supported the STARTUP e-Learning Programme with its aims to provide the tools and effective working practices that will enable more disabled people to explore entrepreneurship and self-employment. By recognising the important social and economic contribution that disabled people can make, STARTUP brought together a number of social engagement organisations to create an e-learning platform to inspire tomorrow’s youth workers, job coaches and facilitators.
