<p>‘Improving Lives - The Work, Health and Disability Green Paper’, published on 31
October, announces a Personal Support Package for people with health conditions and
disabilities, with a range of new interventions and initiatives designed to provide
support that is tailored to the individual needs of claimants, including young disabled
people.</p><p>In particular as part of this package we will explore how to better
support young disabled people by testing a voluntary, supported Work Experience programme.
This will give young disabled people the opportunity to benefit from time in the workplace
with a mainstream employer. It will enable them to build their confidence and skills,
enhance their CV and demonstrate their ability to perform a job role.</p><p> </p><p>
