Welcome

Each year Papworth Trust helps over 13,000 disabled people in the East of England and the UK through a wide range of services covering Employment, Vocational Rehabilitation, Housing and Personal support. We are passionate about disabled people and the services we offer.

In using the term "disabled" we mean anyone who has a long-term health issue, learning difficulty, physical disability, sensory impairment, mental health issue or a combination of these or other impairments. We also mean anyone of any age.

As disability experts, Papworth Trust also works with the Government, employers, service providers and commissioners to promote disability equality and good practice.
