WorkWell

What is WorkWell?

WorkWell is a programme that supports disabled people and people with health conditions to start, stay or succeed in work. WorkWell can offer a range of support, including:

  • a personal assessment of your needs to understand what support might work best for your circumstances
  • 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, including:
    • musculoskeletal (MSK) assessments and treatment support for conditions which affect all areas of the body including the spine, arms, legs, hands and feet
    • support to access non-medical wellbeing support, services and activities, for example volunteering, arts activities, group learning, gardening, befriending, cookery, healthy eating advice and a range of sports
    • impartial careers advice, information, guidance and support to access jobs, skills and training, including help to progress in work
  • 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)

Each individual participating in WorkWell will receive tailored support in the form of one-to-one appointments. These will be with a dedicated WorkWell Community Connector to review progress and recommend further actions and activities related to the personalised action plan. 

Referrals to our WorkWell Community Connector are made though our existing referral pathways
