About this service

Positive Pathways is for people age 25+ experiencing disabilities, health conditions, mental health issues and other intersectionality challenges and are finding it difficult to progress on their employability journey. Positive Pathways helps people to:

• Assess and address personal, health, family, financial and other challenges that may be holding them back from taking the first step towards an employability pathway.
• Access Work Experience placement, Sector-skills Academies, Apprenticeships and Paid Employment.
• Engage with employers and negotiate suitable work experience placements and paid jobs that provide accommodations or adjustments suited to individual circumstances.
• Sustain paid employment through on-going engagement with the employer and review of individual success in the workplace.

We work closely with living wage employers to provide advice on equality, disability, diversity and inclusive workplaces that provide equal opportunities for future and existing employees.
