Aspirations for Life
Aspirations For Life is a campaign that received funding from the Government in 2009 and 2010 as part of the Valuing People Now Employment strategy - raising aspirations and expectations for people with learning disabilities.
The website is not only a legacy of the campaign but also a call to action for people from all over the country to drive forward real changes ensuring that employment is a genuine possibility for all. This is only the start!
Aspirations For Life has been a joint partnership between Paradigm and Pure Innovations supported by Skillnet, IBK Initiatives and Building Bridges Training.
The website will provide you will a rich variety of resources to help you raise the employment aspirations and expectations for children and young people with learning disabilities. We have made it easy to navigate and simple to use and whilst it's a site primarily for families, support professionals and employers we have included a small section for children and young people.
We want the Aspirations For Life Resource Pack to grow in the future and we feel confident you will support us with this growth.
So, what can you do?
Despite these tough economic times there are innovative projects going on around the country and new resources being produced that should be celebrated and shared... perhaps in the part of the country where you live or work. So please use the Contact / Contribute page to tell us about these so we can spread the word.
