Pushing Boundaries
Welcome to Paradigm
“Don’t ever call us unskilled again!”
Learning from the experience of Support Workers during Covid-19
“A visceral report which doesn’t pull any punches. A hidden workforce speaks out. Support Workers we salute you.” Sue Livett, CEO of The Aldingbourne Trust
“Don’t ever call us ‘unskilled’ again” is a report that brings you the voices of 118 Support Workers (supporting people with a learning disability and/or autism) from across the UK.
The report captures their experiences, thoughts, ideas and learning during the pandemic and shares them with the nation. It’s time to value the skills of Support Workers!
