We think that this statistic is a shocking one that the country needs to face up to. Employers need to realise the benefits that employing people with disabilities brings them. We want to highlight and showcase these benefits and bring about change to these statistics. Whilst at the same time we realise that each individual matures at different ages and points in their lives. For some they are not ready for the world of employment yet and need to work on interpersonal, confidence, independence and communication skills.
