Supported Employment West Sussex- Coping with working duringĀ CovidĀ -19

13/5/2020

 
Picture
Aldingbourne WorkAid and Impact Workability have joined together in partnership to provide an exciting re-vamped supported employment service. Fulfilling the latest Supported Employment contract from West Sussex County Council, WorkAid will continue supporting individuals with confirmed Learning Disability or Autism Spectrum Conditions, and Workability will continue to support individuals with Acquired Brain Injuries, Physical and Sensory Impairments and those who are carers. 
One of the people Aldingbourne WorkAid supports, Brad, has been working as a cleaner in a supermarket in Chichester since February 2020.  He has to get up at 4.30  in the morning in order to start his job at 5.30.  He cleans the toilets, mops the floor and hoovers the offices upstairs.    Brad loves his job . He says  ‘it has helped me in different ways,  I’ve learned new skills. I have to be flexible because my duties can change suddenly and I can be asked to do something different. I’ve also got used to getting up early but have to be really quiet so as not to wake my housemates”. 

Susanna, one of our Employment Consultants, asked Brad to explain how the Corona virus is affecting his work.  He says he has continued to work and says the safety of himself and others is the number one priority.   “We keep 2 metres apart but this is quite challenging especially now that more people are returning to work” 

When Brad returns from work to his house which he shares with 3 others he has his temperature taken.  This is to make sure he does not have a high temperature which is one of the indications of Corona virus.  

For more information on our eligibility criteria and how to access our supported employment, please contact workaid@aldingbourne.org (01243 546035) or workability@impact-initiatives.org.uk (01903 730044)
