    Hi my name is Jennifer Poole. I have an NVQ1 and 2 in Business Studies. I am a wheelchair user as I have cerebal palsy. I would like to be considered for suitable vacancies.

    Hi@jenpen38

    Welcome to the community!
    It's nice to hear that you are looking for employment.

    Are you only looking for volunteer work or paid work as well?

    If you are looking for paid work maybe our support to work service could be beneficial for you. We do not find a job for you but we can support you with  creating a good quality CV, cover and spec letters, job searches/ applications, interview skills and advice on access to work etc.

    You can read more about the service here:
    https://my.scope.org.uk/supporttowork/

    If you are only looking for volunteer work then you can find organisations that can help you by searching on google by typing "volunteer organisations" ( then location)


    I wish you all the best and hope that you find yourself in either paid or unpaid work in the near future.


    Kind Regards
    Pia
