Supporting young people, adults and their families since 1968.

Starting your first job is never easy. 💼

But for autistic people, it's more than just "getting a job" and going to work. It's...

⭐ Writing CVs that are honest, tailoured to their skills, and somehow impress with no knowledge of what is expected or how to be both sincere and strategic in their writing.

⭐ Going to an interview, where a lack of eye contact is seen as a sign of disinterest, and stuttering is seen as uncertainty.

⭐ Turning up every day to somewhere you've never been, with people you've never spoken to, sometimes with no experience of travelling to the area or using public transport.

⭐ Learning new processes, skills or ways of working that stretch and challenge your routine to uncomfortable levels.

How can we tackle this? 💡

We have a dedicated employment team that provides one-to-one support for autistic people, whether they are diagnosed or seeking a diagnosis, and can provide help with CVs, interviews, accessing training, courses, job searches and more.
