How HOPE Works?

HOPE is a non-profit agency that focuses on supporting the talent and skills of our clients and matching them with inclusive organisations.

We work with clients that have self-referred or been referred from various sources, including DWP, schools, colleges, Job Centre Plus, and Youth Services.

Our recruitment opportunities are with organisations that are committed to looking beyond disabilities to find the best person for the job.
