Papworth Trust is a leading disability charity in the East of England that support thousands of people, their families and carers every year. Our work includes providing a range of high quality services for disabled and disadvantaged people and campaigning for changes that disabled people want.
Our vision is for a world where disabled people are seen for who they are.
Our mission is to support disabled people to have equality, choice and independence.
The services we deliver are:
An Employment service that delivers projects and programmes like Community Connections South, Work & Health Programme, JETS and First Steps To Success - we also provide advice and support regarding training opportunities and work experience, as well as advice to local employers.
An Opportunities Without Limits service that provides leisure, learning and work-related activities to more than 300 disabled people.
OWL Bikes, which offers quality refurbished bikes at great prices - while offering work and training opportunities for local disabled people.
Care services - the majority of our customers, who typically have higher support needs, live in their own homes within Supported Living settings.
A Housing service that rents homes to people - many of which are fully wheelchair accessible.
