Workplace coaching for ADHD, autistic and other neurodivergent adults, funded by an Access to Work grant. £75 an hour, online anywhere in the UK or face to face in Manchester.
Access to Work is a grant from the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP). It helps with the extra costs of being in work because of a disability or health condition, and that can include ADHD, autism, dyslexia and other neurodivergent conditions. It can pay for workplace coaching. It is a grant, not a loan, so it does not have to be paid back.
It is for people in paid work, about to start a job or self-employed, in England, Scotland or Wales. Northern Ireland has its own scheme. The Access to Work page on GOV.UK has the full rules and the application.
Deciding what matters first, breaking big pieces of work down and keeping track without it all living in your head.
Starting tasks, switching between them and protecting time for work that needs concentration.
Emails, meetings, feedback and the unwritten rules of work, at a pace that suits you.
Noticing your energy before it runs out, using our Traffic Light Method™, and building recovery into the week.
Turning reasonable adjustments into something that actually works day to day, and knowing what to ask for.
Starting a new role or going back after time off, with a plan that does not need you at full strength from day one.
