  3. Sources of employment support and advice

    The organisations on this webpage offer a range of advice, support and guidance on recruitment and employment issues including sharing information about your disability or health condition with prospective employers.

  4. Self-employment

    Self-employment can be well suited to disabled or neurodivergent students and graduates, if you find it difficult to keep up with traditional work.

  5. Identifying inclusive and disability-friendly employers

    There are a number of initiatives and organisations that support employers to ensure that their recruitment process and working practices do not discriminate against jobseekers and employees with a disability or long-term health condition.

  7. Targeted opportunities for disabled individuals

    Many large employers are becoming more proactive to recruit candidates with disabilities, neurodiversity and long-term health conditions. Some run their own schemes targeting disabled applicants, while others work with specialist organisations that manage the recruitment process on their behalf.

  8. Starting a new job

    If you have accessed support for your disability or health condition throughout school and university, e.g. in the form of a support plan or funding, you might be concerned about similar support being available to you in the workplace.
