We are expanding our Inclusion Works! programme for young disabled people to support people in East Lothian.
Inclusion Works! East Lothian is funded by East Lothian Works’ Small Grant Programme. This is a fantastic opportunity for young disabled people who are starting to think about their next steps.
Through a combination of one to one engagement and group work sessions, our aim is to support young disabled people to increase their confidence, develop key transferrable skills, and improve their health and wellbeing. For any participants ready for the following next steps, we would support them to gain employment, work experience, volunteering experience or to re-engage with education.
Eligibility:
- Young disabled people, including those who are experiencing poor mental health such as anxiety and depression, and anyone living with a long-term health condition
- Aged 16 – 24
- Live in East Lothian
