Unity Works supports people with a learning disability to gain skills, achieve qualifications and secure jobs, so they can reach their full potential.
We run free adult learning courses in Greenwich for people with a learning disability wanting to develop self-confidence, to learn new skills and to improve their understanding of their local community. Our programmes also have a focus on how to access services, facilities and opportunities, so that people can make positive decisions about their lives.
