Steve's story

Steve is a HR Manager and he is responsible for all the activities involved in supporting a network of employees. By applying for and successfully receiving Access to Work support, his employer has supplied him with a computer screen reader, a mobile phone with speech software, a braille display, a scanner and a braille embosser.

Steve says: "The support from Access to Work takes the financial worries away from the employer, and it means that your skills and abilities are enhanced through the additional support that is available."


For more information about the scheme, we refer you to our Access to Work section. We also produce an 'Access to Work' factsheet, which you can find in our employment factsheets section.
