Bridge 2 Employment Programme

The Bridge to Employment Programme (B2E) is Better Lives Partnership’s Flagship project.

It aims to give young autistic people a structured programme of person-centred accredited learning in their area of interest and expertise, and work-related skills and to prepare them for the next step towards employment, self-employment, education, training or volunteering.

B2E develops unique opportunities for each young person that incorporates one or all of the following; employability skills, work experience and social enterprise.

B2E is unique to Dumfries and Galloway in terms of its delivery style and target group. Through B2E we also offer our young people opportunities to develop essential core skills such as being able to travel independently, writing job applications, attending interviews, managing social interactions and working independently.
