Description

We recognise a social model of disability which states that disability is caused by the way society is organised rather than by a person's impairment or difference and that recognises the strengths and assets of all people. It looks at ways of removing obstacles that restrict life choices for people with disabilities. When barriers are removed, people with disabilities can be independent and equal in society, with choice and control over their own lives.
Too many people with health issues and impairments in the Sheffield City Region are out of work. Unemployment among this group has significant social and economic costs for the region. The MCA (Mayoral Combined Authority) is committed to tackling low rates of employment among people with a range of health conditions and disabilities and to boost productivity through supporting those in work and struggling (repeated bouts of sickness, low productivity, feeling unable to work to their potential) to enable them to:
- recover more rapidly and effectively from their mental or physical health issue or build strategies to manage their health condition and barriers to work;
- build social connections and support networks;
- gain financial independence; and
- improve their general health and wellbeing.
