About Ways to Work
Ways to Work started in January 2008 a partnership project to encourage employers across the Humber sub-region to consider providing employment opportunities for people with learning disabilities and learning difficulties. It was funded by the Learning and Skills Council (LSC) Yorkshire and the Humber as part of its Pathfinder Programme fund the project.
The project developed links with support organisations, schools and colleges across the Humber sub-Region, to develop new approaches to ensure people with learning disabilities and learning difficulties are given the chance to realise their full potential.
One of the biggest problems identified by both employers and people with learning disabilities is finding local support services to make things happen. The Ways to Work has developed to try to address this issue by providing local services and service providers an opportunity to promote their services and share in some of their success stories
Expanding the Ways to Work website
With funding from Learning and Skills Council (LSC) Lincolnshire and Rutland the website has expanded to cover a wider geographic area.
