People living with certain health conditions may be able to receive extra support from the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) while they look for work.
The Access to Work scheme can help such people either get or stay in work if they have a mental health condition or disability. According to the DWP, the scheme can provide support tailored to an individual's needs and unique situation.
Successful applicants to the scheme will be eligible for a wide range of financial grants alongside mental health support and help in securing job interviews. The scheme can also cover expenses including transport costs and equipment costs as well as assessments to determine what claimants will need in order to do their job effectively.
