Taking Charge

Taking Charge - Workbridge 

To celebrate 90 years of supporting disabled people into employment opportunities, Workbridge commissioned historian Janette Munneke to write a book, Taking Charge: The Story of Workbridge.

Workbridge has a proud history as an independent disability-owned and led organisation, delivering a well-supported set of training and employment programmes to the community.

The book aims to shine a light on Workbridge’s legacy of supporting disabled people to gain employment after World War 1 through to today. It provides valuable insights into the impact of war beyond the frontline and it explores the ways Workbridge helped returned servicepeople rediscover their interests and aspirations.
