Kevin
Kevin, a wheelchair user from Wigan, tried to find work for five years and sent more than 500 application letters in just seven months.
“I attended the Ingeus office and felt straightaway that the advisors focused on my abilities. My legs might not work so well, but my brain and arms do. My job search has paid off and l love working at Morrisons. My message to everyone looking for work and living with a health condition or disability is not to give up. Get some effective help and encouragement like I found with Ingeus and keep on trying.”
