Employment support for people with a learning disability

Our Employment Training Hub can offer support to adults with a learning disability, autism or Asperger’s who want to get ready for paid employment.

If you live in Nottinghamshire and have a learning disability, autism or Asperger's our i-work team can offer you support to get a job.

The i-work team can:

  • look at your skills, interests and qualifications
  • find jobs that you might like to do
  • explain what will happen with benefits if you get paid work
  • give you the opportunity to try out jobs to see if you like them
  • carry on giving you support when you find a job to help you stay there.

Contact the i-work team on 0300 500 80 80. You can contact us yourself or ask someone else to do it for you.
