Careers in Care - Inspiration Activities

Discovery UK supports people with learning disabilities and autism in Somerset to get more from life. Discovery is a social enterprise formed over two years ago, from a ground breaking partnership between Dimensions, a national not-for-profit support provider, and Somerset County Council, working alongside the people we support, families, carers and colleagues.

Discovery in Somerset are keen to work with schools and colleges to inspire young people about careers in care and can provide a range of career inspiration opportunities for students such as career assemblies and talks, careers information sessions and career open days.

To arrange a careers inspiration activity with Discover, contact Helen Acland for more details.
