Let's Talk About Work...
In June 2009, the project launched a new road-show for disabled people. On the 3rd and 10th of June, students and service users of the Percy Hedley Foundation were invited to an informal discussion about work placements, voluntary work and paid work and how benefits can be affected. The session was facilitated by Job Centre Plus and over sixty people attended over the two days.
The road show will continue throughout 2009 and 2010
