Richmond and Wandsworth supported employment

With the right support at the right time, you can gain the confidence to find work. And we're here to make sure that happens.
We work with the London Borough of Richmond Upon Thames and Wandsworth Council to support people with autism, learning disabilities, mental health needs, physical disabilities and sensory impairments to gain and keep paid employment.
We can support you to:
- write your CV and fill out application forms
- search for jobs that match your skills
- prepare for interviews and attend with you, if you need support
- work with employers to make adjustments to the interview process
- identify changes or adjustments at your work
- understand your rights as an employee or volunteer.
How we work with you
We focus on supporting you with your work goals, which might mean working part-time, full-time or doing voluntary work. Whatever your goal, we can help you at your pace.
If you're currently off sick or struggling with work, we can also support you to keep your job. We'll work with you and your employer to find the best solution.
We are person-centred in our approach, so we always put people's wishes and aspirations at the centre of our support.
We always remain positive and help you through the ups and downs of finding work. Sometimes things don't go your way, and that's ok. It's how you pick yourself up and keep moving forward that counts. We see your potential and it's our job to help you show your skills to potential employers.
We will treat you with dignity, with patience and understanding. Because when you are successful in getting a job, it will be a great feeling - for you, and for us.
Becca supports me and helps me go through what I’m going to say at an interview. A week before, she helped me to find my way to the company and I got to meet the team before the interview. Shiu-Ming
