Campaign: To show employers what those with learning disabilities can offer

We are a group of young people from the Aurora Centre at South Thames College and we all have a range of learning disabilities.

 

When it comes to employment, we all feel that our valuable skills aren’t always acknowledged because employers can often overlook us.

 

We’re all capable of various tasks and we want to be able to put these to good use.

 

Hopefully one day this means we can earn our own money and live independently.

 

With our campaign, we want to urge places of work to be more open-minded about who they hire and recognise what people can offer.

Here is a list of Fixers helping me with this campaign:

 

Adam Martin Afua Kutuor
Christian Oku Ethan Bray
Ezra Seguya Giri Balakumar
Ibrahim Keelson James Keating
Jodie Harris Jordan Davey
Kieran Smith-Mitchell Lewis Kirton
Lydia Mitchell Mei Lyee Yew
Omaar Ali Paris Mills
Rema Bibi Sean Hawley
Shian McLeish Sunshine Chang
Vincent McNally Yohendra Ravindrarajah

Aurora Centre, South Thames College 

Thank you to staff at the Aurora Centre who supported us throughout this campaign

June 2015

The launch of our film took place at South Thames College to an audience of approximately 70 people. Those in attendance included family, friends, organisations and local council members. Feedback and photos from the event can be seen below.
