WorkWell
WorkWell is designed to support disabled people and people with health conditions. Joining the programme is entirely up to you, but before you decide we would like you to understand what taking part will involve.
The person who gave you this form will go through it with you, to help you decide whether you would like to take part. Please ask if you have any questions, or if there is anything you do not understand.
What is WorkWell?
The aim of WorkWell is to support disabled people and people with health conditions to start, stay or succeed in work. WorkWell can offer a range of support, and may include:

- Personalised, goal-based plans to address your physical, mental wellbeing, and social needs to help you return to and/or thrive in work.
- Access and referral to local and community-based work and health support services.
- Support for employers to understand your needs and advice on how to provide workplace adjustments that support you (employers will only be contacted with your permission).
