An event will be held to offer advice and help to business owners looking to recruit people with disabilities and health conditions.

The Disability Confidence event will include motivational speakers and a chance to chat with staff from the Department of Work and Pensions.

The aim of the scheme, which is funded by Job Centre Plus and Waltham Forest Steps into Work, is to encourage businesses to hire people from a wider pool of talent. 

It will take place on Wednesday, March 21, in Walthamstow Library from 6pm to 7.30pm. Refreshments will be provided.
