Work Placements

Work placements give you first-hand experience in the workplace. You’ll try different industries, environments and working styles to see what suits you. Whizz-Kidz facilitate work placements for wheelchair users aged 18-25. We work with companies to set up placements so we can ensure they are accessible and safe for wheelchair users. We offer Disability Awareness Training for staff and help plan placements, so they are of value for the young wheelchair user and the host company.
