At bemix we believe you should be seen, be heard and belong. People with learning difficulties and/or autism do not always have the same opportunities to be fully involved in our society. We want to change that. We run projects which support people to learn skills, gain qualifications and become more confident and independent. We also work together with employers, businesses and services to make sure what they do is inclusive.

As part of our groups and projects, you can do a course and get a qualification. Read more
