Current Projects

We deliver regular learning and development projects which try out new approaches to improve services for disabled people. These are delivered in partnership with member organisations who typically carry out the face to face activities with employers and jobseekers with SUSE taking a co-ordinating, management and reporting role.

This is a crucial time for our sector with significant economic uncertainty and rising numbers of people economically inactive. The Scottish Government have set a target to halve the Disability Employment Gap in Scotland by 2038 – at present only 50% of disabled people are working, compared to 82% of their non-disabled peers.

Across Scotland, new No One Left Behind services are being developed by Local Authorities and we want to ensure that more disabled people get access to high quality Supported Employment services that will move them into work.
