Our Learning for Life and Work centres in Huntingdon, Papworth Everard, Cambridge and our OWL Centre in Sawston deliver a range of opportunities to help people to live independently and learn new skills. Edward attends one of our centres and he enjoys doing woodwork classes, where he is currently making a bird table for his mother.

Our Housing service can drastically increase quality of life for people. With the support of the housing team, brothers Daryl and Aaron moved into two Papworth Trust properties and now have more independence.

The Home Solutions service helps people like Jean to adapt their homes to their needs. Jean was thrilled with her new accessible bathroom, which was fitted by our experienced team.

Our Personal Support service assists people like Jane to reach their goal of living independently. After years of communal living, Jane now lives in her own home for the first time.

Christian had struggled to get a job because of a lack of work experience, but thanks to the support of our Employment team he is now in full-time work. Our team supports 7,000 people a year like Christian to get or keep a job.

Our Fun United Youth Clubs are a great place for disabled teenagers to go to make new friends, have fun and take part in activities such as music. Attendee Eliane really enjoys engaging with other young people.

The Vocational Rehabilitation service helps people like Shaun, who used to work as a building site operative until a serious accident at work left him with multiple broken bones. With the support of Papworth Trust, Shaun is now working again.

Our Payroll service helps anyone who employs their own carer, personal assistant or support staff to live their life more independently. We provide a range of services, including dealing with HM Revenue and Customs, working out how to pay employees and calculating tax.
