Employment Services
Our employment services support A-Level students, undergraduates and graduates with their transition from education to employment.
We have 19 years experience of the recruitment process and extensive knowledge of the needs of partially sighted and blind candidates.
We work with employers to help them manage the recruitment of partially sighted and blind people.
Training Services
Our training services work with blind school children, their parents and teachers to raise their career aspirations.
We run training days in schools across the UK working with over 400 school children annually.
We provide additional support for blind children through our mentoring service.
If you are young and want to start your own business, get in touch and we are willing to listen/help/advise.
