Welcome
From the Chief Executive’s chair Remploy is a great organisation. It is a business that if full of passionate, dedicated colleagues who strive to make a real difference to the lives of the disabled people we support, the business success of the employers we work with, and the quality of the services contracted by the commissioners who fund us. Every day Remploy delivers real and meaningful social impact. It is with great pride, therefore, that I have agreed to take up the position of Remploy’s new chief executive. Today, Remploy is in great shape thanks to the previous chief executive, Beth Carruthers, who has been promoted to take up a new role of managing director of MAXIMUS human services in the UK, including oversight of Remploy. The personal and professional qualities that Beth has shown in her outstanding leadership of Remploy can now be used to even greater effect. I am incredibly excited about Remploy’s future. Since leaving Government ownership in April 2015, we have seen the business win breakthrough contracts in new markets and our innovative joint venture model between MAXIMUS and Remploy colleagues has already been externally recognised with awards.
We have a clear and focussed strategy and we know what we need to deliver. Customer experience and satisfaction lies at the heart of what we do and we will strive to ensure that we continue to be an organisation that is easy for employers to partner and do business with. With my own personal experiences of disability, I hope I can continue to operate in the wider best interests of disabled people. But we can only be successful through continuing to work with the incredible network of partners, customers and suppliers that we have. We cannot make the impact alone and your support for Remploy has been key to our success. Thank you, and long may it continue. I hope you enjoy reading our latest edition of Branching Out!
We have a very strong platform from which to build, and our approach to innovation and diversification will continue. { 02

Jasmine is buzzing at McDonald’s Jasmine Copestick struggled to find work when she left college and isn’t afraid to admit that at times she despaired of ever having a job. But life changed for the 24-year-old from Brierley Hill in the West Midlands when she was referred to Remploy for specialist support with her job searching. Within months she swapped the frustration of unemployment for the euphoria of having a permanent job as a lobby host at McDonald’s busy Castle Gate restaurant in Dudley.
“Remploy understands our needs and support into work motivated people who are keen to be part of the McDonald’s family.”
Jasmine, who is one of more than 90 disabled people supported by Remploy into work with McDonald’s since October, said: “I applied for so many jobs, I actually lost count,” recalled Jasmine who has epilepsy. “But from the minute I walked through the door of Remploy’s branch in Wolverhampton, I felt someone was on my side at last.” Remploy advisors helped restore Jasmine’s confidence and self-esteem and convinced her that she had many of the skills employers are looking for. Jasmine is making great progress and always gives 100 per cent,” said Sandra Hayward, McDonald’s Castle Gate restaurant manager. “She is keen, wants to learn everyday and – most importantly – is great with customers. She always comes to work with a smile on her face.” Added Jasmine: “I love the buzz of working at McDonald’s. It’s very busy, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. I can see myself working here for many years to come. In fact, I’ve set my sights on becoming a restaurant manager.” “I’m grateful to McDonald’s for giving me this opportunity and Remploy for believing in me and setting me on the path to a fulfilling career.” Eleanor Good, a resourcing officer at McDonald’s said “We are delighted with the success of our partnership with Remploy. It is important to McDonald’s that in our recruitment we reflect the communities in which we operate and Remploy helps us to achieve that.” Remploy’s Quarterly Magazine

New director for Remploy Cymru Helen Northmore has joined Remploy as business development director for Wales, and sees building partnerships and relationships with a wide range of employers and organisations in Wales as central to the success of supporting more disabled people into work. “There are lots of businesses and organisations doing great work and I hope that we can work with them to deliver more positive outcomes for people in Wales,” she said. Helen understands the challenges facing disabled people very well, as four years ago she lost 70 per cent of her sight in three weeks. “That experience brought home to me how important it is to have a job and being able to do everyday things,” says Helen. Thankfully, her sight recovered after a cataract operation which doubled her determination to support people with challenges getting into and staying in work. Before joining Remploy Cymru, Helen worked for Energy Saving Trust Wales for eight years and her previous roles include account director at Grayling Wales and deputy head of public affairs at the Federation of Small Businesses Wales.
Helen is also manager of Team Wales Roller Derby, the Welsh women’s national roller derby team which competed in the Roller Derby World Cup in 2014 where they came 17th out of 30 international teams. She also referees a number of roller derby teams in South Wales.
Scottish Government chooses Remploy to announce new jobs funding The Scottish cabinet secretary for fair work, skills and training, Roseanna Cunningham, chose a visit to Remploy’s Edinburgh branch to make an important announcement about new employment support measures for disabled people in Scotland. The Scottish Government is to provide up to £20 million in additional funding to replace Work Choice and Work Programme north of the border. This trebles the funding being made available to exercise new devolved powers on employability from 1 April 2017. Work Choice is being replaced by a new contract with existing providers for one year to provide ongoing support to disabled unemployed. { 04

At the same time, skills development Scotland (SDS) will use the mechanisms currently in place through the Employability fund, to deliver a new devolved service for clients with a health condition and at risk of long term unemployment. Ms Cunningham, pictured with Matt Lancashire during her visit to the branch, said: “New powers on employability are among the most exciting of the new areas to be devolved, as it gives Scotland the chance to create something that works for unemployed Scots.”

Celebrating an amazing year of achievement! Beth Carruthers, former chief executive and now MAXIMUS UK managing director of human services, reviews a trailblazing year. We made a huge and bold step on 7 April last year when Remploy left Government ownership in a joint venture partnership between MAXIMUS, a leading operator of government health and human services programmes on four continents, and our employees, who were gifted a 30% stake in our company. I am enormously proud and excited by what we have achieved. We’ve had to adapt and adjust to get the balance right and we are now demonstrating great progress. We are commercially competitive and the provider of choice for significant organisations in this country such as the BBC and Care Quality Commission. These two contracts alone demonstrate increased diversity in our contract base and, with the BBC in particular, the growing strength of our employer offer. Relationships with our employer partners lie at the heart of everything we do - we don’t have the jobs to offer to disabled people, businesses do. Cementing and deepening these relationships are vital if we are to reduce the 34% employment gap between disabled people in work and the non-disabled workforce. In March, our Access to Work, Workplace mental health support service, broke the 5,000 referral milestone and is growing at a healthy rate every month. It is proving so successful that our performance has been endorsed personally by Justin Tomlinson, the minister for disabled people and we have now extended the service to cover young apprentices.
Remploy’s Quarterly Magazine
In Scotland, as employment funding is devolved, we are building a whole new set of commissioner relationships. I believe we are becoming a trusted partner and I look forward to seeing this bear fruit as the Scottish Government realises the benefits of its new powers. We achieved external recognition too. Our Investors In People Gold status and Matrix accreditation has been retained, we won the newcomer award from the Employee Ownership Association and were awarded a one star rating in the Best Companies survey for The Sunday Times Top 100 companies, which means we have very good levels of colleague engagement. For the next 12 months localism, personalisation, employer relationships and supply chains will all be really important, as will price. These are our challenges and ones we are already rising to.

New hope for flexible workers ‘Hire Me My Way’ seeks to end the exclusion of part time workers from decently paid jobs in the UK.
Remploy is supporting the Hire Me My Way Campaign, a national initiative to make the recruitment process fairer and more transparent for people who need flexibility in their job. The national campaign led by employment flexibility experts Timewise is designed to increase the number of good quality jobs that can be worked flexibly in the UK and aims to treble the number to one million by 2020.
The national scheme will showcase employers open to discussing flexible working during the recruitment process. It will also offer free expert advice to those searching for flexible jobs, externally or in their existing company. It has the backing of major organisations, employers and campaigners, including the Confederation of British Industry, Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development, Resolution Foundation and the Recruitment and Employment Federation.
Equal Approach, Remploy’s recruitment partner, already promotes flexible working as a benefit of working at Remploy. Karen Mattison, Timewise co-founder and joint chief executive, said: “Modern work has changed, with half of the UK workforce now working flexibly. The problem is that how we advertise jobs simply hasn’t caught up and now it’s time for UK businesses to respond to what candidates want.” “If you are open to hiring someone flexibly, at the point of recruitment, say so. Great employers for flexibility need to make themselves known. Join Hire Me My Way and make yourself known directly to the people who want to work for you.” Research by Timewise revealed that more than three-quarters of British workers who want part-time or flexible roles feel the jobs market is ‘broken’’ and shows that millions are being excluded from the jobs market through a lack of flexible roles. { 06

Innovation is the key to retaining staff Matt Reed, director of employer services, looks at how innovative approaches are helping employers to recruit disabled talent. Remploy is blessed with an abundance of incredible relationships with employers, all of which started with a commitment by the employer to look at simple adjustments to their processes and culture to allow all talent to flourish. We recognise the importance of supporting employers to build their own disability confidence, capacity, and capability. We know that this takes time and effort on both sides, and when this happens the results are outstanding. We are helping employers to recruit the very best disabled talent with new Pre-Employ opportunities with Tesco, and ASDA through their ‘Enable’ programme, now coming on line. New exciting national opportunities in care, security, and construction is expected later in the year. It is new, innovative opportunities that really excite me, something genuinely different that improves the choice for disabled people and creates a sustainable platform that can grow and develop.
The results have been outstanding and have played a key role in our Access to Work, Workplace Mental Health Support Service having the best year yet.
More and more of our employer partners are recognising the benefit of supporting their existing staff, and offering specialist support to address the challenges that affect us all. Over the last six months the employer service team has been focused on highlighting the holistic ‘retention services’ we offer, services tailored to the need of the employer and focussed on retaining talent within their business.
Every day brings new opportunities in our drive to be the disability partner of choice for UK employers. If you are not already on board, why not jump on? There’s plenty of room…
We have been involved in seminars across the country with our partners Posturite, where we were invited to discuss ‘Mental Health in the Workplace’ to several hundred of their customers.

We talk to
Q&A Sarah Redmond, Relationship Manager and Disability Work Experience Programme Lead at Lloyds Banking Group, talks about the placement partnership with Remploy which is helping the Group recruit more disabled people. How does your partnership with Remploy work? Under the Disability Work Experience Programme, Lloyds Banking Group identifies two-week placement opportunities across our network that enables disabled people supported by Remploy to improve their readiness for work. These placements are then handed to Remploy who in turn qualify and source to the opportunity. They support both the candidate and Lloyds Banking Group through the placement. As one of the largest programme of its kind in the financial sector, we also work together externally to talk to other businesses about the programmes, the benefits, and how they could set up their own similar programme. { 08

We talk to
When and how did the partnership start? The partnership started in 2014, when Lloyds Banking Group launched its Helping Britain Prosper Plan under which the Group made a public commitment to address inequality, support disadvantaged people and to champion diversity. The Disability Work Experience Programme also forms part of the Group’s wider commitment to disability. The Group disability team was looking for ways in which we could support disabled people and raise disability confidence amongst the hiring community. This is just one of many ways we can do this. What is the aim of your partnership with Remploy? Our aim is to build and improve disabled peoples’ readiness for work. Many have been out of the workplace for a number of years and that can be daunting for all of us. This programme allows them to get up every morning and enter a professional environment where they are supported and encouraged to learn new skills, whether that is presenting reports, taking part in meetings or working on interview techniques.
“The number of completed placements under the programme has grown year on year by 40%.” Is it good for your business? Absolutely. It allows our disabled employees to become more confident in a safe environment knowing that they have the support of a dedicated Remploy consultant to talk to should they have any questions or require support. This in turn supports our wider commitment to lead the way in our approach to disability. What plans do you have to employ even more disabled people? We are hoping to hit 100 placements this year and we have lots of support from senior colleagues across the Group to make this a reality. I am also working closely with Remploy to look at the evolution of the programme and where we can take it next.
Why do you want to increase the number of disabled people you employ? We have the opportunity to positively affect the lives of the disabled people who take part in the programme. Currently 29% of disabled people who join the programme go on to gain employment and say their success is a direct result of the programme. However, the programme has a secondary benefit in that we are also able to affect positively the understanding of disability among our employees and so raise their disability confidence.
“Our aim is to build and improve disabled peoples’ readiness for work. Many have been out of the workplace for a number of years and that can be daunting for all of us.”
The number of completed placements under the programme has grown year on year by 40%, which is an amazing achievement and one we hope to sustain moving forward. Remploy’s Quarterly Magazine

Around the UK
Devolving power to support more disabled people into work Ayden Sims, director of business development, looks at the impact of political change in the regions. Following last year’s General Election, the Government committed to halving the 34% disability employment gap between the employment rate of disabled people and non-disabled people. This ambition has coincided with a rapid acceleration in the devolution of power away from central government. In 2016 alone, we have seen three new devolution deals announced for Greater Lincolnshire, East Anglia and the West of England; additional powers announced for Greater Manchester over criminal justice services, and the decision, in May, to adopt a directly-elected Mayor for the North-East. Given that devolution will create powerful, nationally recognised political figures in the form of directlyelected mayors, it would send a powerful social message if those leading combined authorities also affirmed the commitment to closing the disability employment gap in their areas. The creation of new combined authorities creates the potential to integrate employment support, bringing together multiple services, establishing fewer points of contact, and replicating the best approaches across a larger geography. Employment and skills delivery in the areas covered by devolution deals is highly fragmented. However combined authorities acting as one administrative unit for the whole region, can use their integrated knowledge to bring together high-quality services across boundaries and signpost those with the highest support needs.
{ 10
Join us on:
facebook.com/remploy
The majority of the current devolution agreements specify the need for combined authorities to develop an “innovative pilot” to facilitate inclusion for groups with the highest support needs. This is an opportunity to deliver new programmes, or extend existing services – including updated skills provision to support up-skilling of older workers. Remploy has been working on a range of European Social Fund (ESF) opportunities from the Big Lottery, Skills Funding Agency (SFA) and Department for Work & Pensions (DWP), offering a tailored service across the country to support disadvantaged groups to progress, gain skills and qualifications. The local nature of these means we are able to construct some truly compelling offers, through our teams embedded in local communities. The devolution process started with a focus on economic growth and rebalancing but it is important that this opportunity is used to support disabled and disadvantaged people to achieve their employment goals.
We look forward to meeting these challenges through working with our partners. For more information, please go to: www.remploy.co.uk/info/20024/become_a_partner or contact ayden.sims@remploy.co.uk

Successes
Did you know one in four people in the UK will experience a mental health problem? A 47-year-old senior manager from Gateshead, who experienced mental health issues that threatened his career, is one of more than 5,000 people who have taken advantage of a free support service which helped them save their jobs. As assistant director of operations for a major social housing provider in the North East, Chris Reed had little choice but to take time away from his job whilst he learned to understand and manage his mental health challenges. With his employer fully behind him he was determined not to lose the career he had spent many years building, and sought support from the free and confidential Workplace Mental Health Support Service operated by Remploy as part of the Government’s Access to Work programme. The service has supported more than 5,000 people across Britain and has achieved an impressive 93% success rate of people retaining their employment six months after joining the programme. Chris said: “I am a very active person, and I had always used my love of sport and personal fitness as a means of staying strong. However, when I severely injured my back a year ago, all this changed overnight. My sleep patterns were disrupted and this had a significant impact on my mental wellbeing. Life became very difficult.”
Remploy’s Quarterly Magazine
Remploy’s trained vocational rehabilitation consultants provided the support Chris needed. The mental health support service offers focused support for six months, tailored to the needs of individual users and their employers including helping to identify appropriate coping strategies, creating personal support plans so that users can stay in their jobs, and providing help for employers so that they can support colleagues who already have, or are developing, a mental health condition. “Remploy’s speedy intervention really was my saving grace. My advisor Claire and her team of therapists helped me understand what was happening, and they spoke at great length to my employer to help them understand how they could best support me,” said Chris. Remploy recently extended this service to cover apprentices. Employers and individuals can find out more about this free support service by contacting: 0300 4568114.

Real work, real results
Call for Government action on supported internships A report produced jointly by Remploy and Mencap argues that Supported Internships should have equal status with apprenticeships, so that people with learning disabilities are not excluded from acquiring skills. The report, ‘Raising Aspiration: Widening participation in Supported Internships’, makes the case that apprenticeships are not suitable for many people with learning disabilities, who can find the requirement to pursue a qualification very challenging. Supported Internships, which base the final year of a young person’s college course in the workplace using on-the-job support from a trained job coach, can achieve a success rate of 65% or more. At the end of the academic year, interns are well placed to apply for vacancies with the host employer.
Although the Government has endorsed the supported internship model as best practice and has supported their development, many employers are still not aware that they exist. This makes it difficult for providers like Remploy and Mencap who would like to support people with learning disabilities into paid work on a far wider scale. Susan Allott, Remploy’s learning disability champion, said: “We want to see a Government-led awareness campaign, promoting supported internships and celebrating positive examples from across the country.”
“By working collaboratively to give supported internships a much higher profile, we have the opportunity to create many more jobs for people with learning disabilities.”
Since the employment rate of learning disabled people is alarmingly low at only 6%, the report says it is vital that supported internships are made available to as many young people with learning disabilities as possible. They also provide an opportunity for employers to develop their understanding of learning disabilities in the workplace, creating new disability confident employers. The joint report with the mental health charity Mencap, calls on the Government to raise employers’ awareness of the effectiveness of supported internships, and suggests ring-fencing funds from existing spending to make this happen.

John brews up success John White’s life was so affected by his anxiety that he couldn’t go out with friends. “I would constantly be over-thinking every situation. It was not knowing what might happen when I left the house that made me feel very anxious,” he said. But that all changed when he secured a job in the Costa Coffee shop at the Premier Inn, in Argyle Street, Glasgow as a result of the partnership between Remploy and Whitbread. The 19 year old from Parkhead, Glasgow had not worked since leaving college when he was introduced to Remploy by Skills Development Scotland, and took the first steps to managing his anxiety and gaining employment. After completing a Certificate of Work Readiness, John joined a placement at the Premier Inn. He was initially looking for a backroom job but was placed in a customer-facing role in the Costa coffee shop at the Premier Inn. “Remploy has helped with my anxiety. Just the simple act of getting up and ready and coming to workshops at the Glasgow branch helped me, as that meant that I was going out every week.” Chris Walker, manager at Costa Coffee said: “John started with us in the middle of what is one of the busiest seasons of the year. At the end of the Christmas period, he was a completely different person to the shy quiet young man who joined us in December.”
Remploy’s Quarterly Magazine
“The John we have now is very smiley, chatty, and is a whizz on the till. He is never afraid to ask questions, take feedback or deal with busy Monday morning customers.” Whitbread and Remploy are working together in a number of areas at both an operational level with the Premier Inn and Costa Coffee brands and with Elly Tomlins, group talent and leadership director, at Whitbread’s Dunstable headquarters. Remploy is supporting regional recruitment activity across the UK in the development of new business launches and existing businesses with Costa Coffee and Premier Inn. Disabled people supported and trained by Remploy are now working in roles such as coffee baristas, housekeeping and kitchen team members in Premier Inn. Whitbread Headquarters in Dunstable has asked Remploy to support them to become more disability confident and also be part of a review into the mandatory training modules they use in online training across the operational teams in all brands.

High jinks at work Remploy Cymru joined forces with the Hijinx Theatre Company to host an innovative drama workshop at the Wales Millennium Centre in Cardiff as part of the celebration of Welsh Skills Work Week.
“Working with fully committed and engaged staff and eager, positive candidates has been great. Seeing their development just in the course of one afternoon was both gratifying and proof that such schemes make a real difference.” The aim of the week was to change attitudes to learning at work, increase awareness of opportunities to learn and provide greater recognition of the different ways to learn in the workplace. The event, which supported 12 people from Cardiff, Pontypridd and Newport, received an award from the Skills Work Week Innovation Grant. Helen Northmore, Remploy Cymru business development director, said: “This very enjoyable afternoon helped people we are supporting to develop their confidence and communication skills through the power of drama.

Supporting an Iraqi veteran on the road to recovery
Around the UK
A former soldier, who was medically discharged when harrowing tours of duty in Iraq left her with severe post-traumatic stress disorder, is finally getting her life back together, thanks to the support she received from Remploy. Samantha Fullylove, aged 30, from Newcastle under Lyme, Staffordshire, had little choice but to leave the career she had always wanted to do but which, after two tours in the Middle East, left her with experiences she found impossible to forget. “Whilst my training was rigorous, nothing could prepare me for the things I saw,” said Sam. “I joined up at the age of 18, and really enjoyed my time based in Germany, but the memories of what happened after that will remain with me for the rest of my life.” After leaving the forces, Sam found it difficult to adjust to civilian life. She experienced constant flashbacks, anxiety and depression which led to a period of homelessness. She sought support from the veterans’ mental health charity Combat Stress and eventually found a home with the help of a local housing association. Then, having regained some of her health, the next step was to find a job. “That’s when I turned to Remploy, hoping they would understand the situation I was in,” said Sam. “It was a huge comfort to know my employment advisor at Remploy could relate to the challenges I faced. Nevertheless, the prospect of having a job – my first in civilian life – was daunting.” Remploy’s experienced team of Vocational Rehabilitation consultants provides targeted support to veterans through a range of specialist employment and career transition services.
Remploy’s Quarterly Magazine
They encouraged Sam to apply for a placement as a care assistant at Rowan Court Care Home in Newcastle-under-Lyme. She emerged with a job offer, and was delighted to accept. Robert Leach, from Remploy added, “The transformation in Sam is remarkable, from being extremely withdrawn and damaged by her experiences, to a confident and capable person, used to making decisions.”
“By our very nature, we’re a caring company, and so extending this to members of staff is part of our business model,” said her manager Rachel Simpson. “During Sam’s trial it was clear that, with the right help, she would be an ideal employee – and Sam’s proving to be just that.”
