Story

Team Domenica provide innovative and personalised employment programmes that develop independence, confidence, communication, and work skills for people with learning disabilities. By running for Team Domenica I’ll be supporting their Wrap Around Programme, and when you donate, you'll be supporting people like Katie.

Katie secured a job at the iconic i360 in Brighton back in 2021 after completing training program at Team Domenica. What makes Katie's journey even more inspiring is that, years later, she still benefits from free access to the Team Domenica Wrap Around Programme. This indispensable initiative offers ongoing support to our graduates long after they've entered the workforce.

Consider this: the national employment rate for individuals with learning disabilities one year after graduating from a supported internship program stands at a mere 25%. But for Team Domenica candidates, it soars to an incredible 95%. Your support in will help continue this amazing work.
