On 11th June 2018, Skillnet Group changed its name to bemix.

A new website, new brand – and new name... 
Our work, mission and values remain the same.

Last year people told us...

your support is excellent:

“You make me feel I’m going to work like the rest of my family.
You continued supporting us even when the programme ended.
Skillnet gives me confidence that I can do quite difficult things."

...people told us:

you have influence but could have much more impact

“Skillnet challenges perceptions.
You could do more to raise your profile.
Skillnet has a much-needed voice for people with learning difficulties”

so we’re focusing on two themes: excellence & influence

Our work won’t change direction. We’re digging even deeper so people with learning difficulties and autism gain skills, jobs and an equal place in society.

We’ll keep up the good work! We’re committed to growing in these areas.

To achieve excellence and influence, we need to reach people and be clear about what we do. We need to stand out and be more memorable.

So, we’ve changed the way we look. We have a new website, new branding – and a new name!
