Keen for paid work?

If you want support to work, we are here to help you every step of the way.

At Dimensions, we know from experience that with the right support, it is possible for almost anyone we support to do a productive job.

Many people, like Stuart and Alan, receive support to work as part of their overall support plan.

In Somerset, our dedicated supported employment service follows the best practice guidelines from the British Association of Supported Employment (BASE). We help people into jobs who might not meet traditional ideas of ‘job readiness’ or ‘employability’.

For example, people like Mark, a production operative, and Steven, a fireworks expert, now have real jobs where they can achieve their employment goals and enjoy social and economic inclusion.  

And Dimensions directly employs many people with learning disabilities and autism, and their families – find out more about the many roles of our experts by experience.

Most importantly, supported employment can help boost self-esteem and social skills, which often leads to reduced support costs overall.
