Supported Internships

One of the most effective ways of helping young people with a learning disability and young people who are autistic on the journey to employment is through supported internship programmes. These provide a structured transition-to-work programme combining real-life work experience with training in employability and independent living skills.
We spoke to Neil Cattle, Learning Disability Manager from ‪@PlussOrgUkPlussInspires‬ about Supported Internships and the benefits they bring to an individual as well as an organisation.
