Hi All. Just wondering if anybody knows of any type of register, company directory, list of UK organisations which actively support neurodiverse younglings in terms of work experience, apprenticeships within their technology functions? Yes, I know many orgs do, yes I know many have DE&I policies to support this but finding such information can be itself difficult to find for neurodiverse individuals. For context this from Aviva is a great example. https://lnkd.in/eqhUqDkQ Thanks in advance.
Excited to announce a new internship programme that will help young adults on the autism spectrum transition from education into employment. The Norwich based initiative - in partnership with The Wherry School Trust, Norfolk County Council and the national transition-to-work charity DFN Project SEARCH - will create urgently needed inclusive employment opportunities for young adults with autism. And will provide specialised training and practical work experience from our city centre offices in Norwich. The Wherry School, Norwich – a specialist school for Autistic Learners - will host an open evening about the programme on Thursday 23rd November 2023 at 4:00pm to help young people and their families find out more about the internship opportunities and how to apply. The event will be an opportunity to meet the education team at the Wherry School, and is open to anyone interested in the internship, including those who may already be in their final years of education in another setting. Attendees will also meet the wider project team at Aviva and other young people exploring similar workplace opportunities. Please contact the school for more information. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/eWQd88zV https://lnkd.in/eYH4agA8
