unitely

unitely empowers individuals with disabilities, chronic illness, and neurodiversity to break through workplace barriers with real-world solutions created with lived experience, advocacy, and education.
Our solution is a **holistic, person-centred approach** that empowers individuals with disabilities, chronic illnesses, and neurodivergence while equipping businesses with the tools to foster truly inclusive environments. We’re not waiting for workplaces to catch up—we’re equipping people with disabilities to build careers and businesses on their own terms. We bridge the gap between ineffective corporate DEI strategies and the real needs of employees by offering practical, sustainable solutions that prioritise **flexibility, accessibility, and empowerment.** ### **1. Empowering Individuals Through Tailored Support** Many existing DEI programs fail because they focus on broad corporate strategies rather than addressing the specific, everyday challenges individuals face. Our solution puts individuals first by providing: - **Personalised Coaching and Mentorship:** Helping individuals navigate their careers, entrepreneurship, and workplace challenges while managing their conditions effectively. - **Flexible Work Integration:** Educating employees on advocating for flexible work arrangements that suit their needs, ensuring they can balance their health and professional goals. - **Community and Peer Support Networks:** Creating safe spaces for individuals to connect, share experiences, and access collective knowledge that fosters resilience and success. - **Self-Advocacy Training:** Equipping individuals with the confidence and knowledge to request workplace accommodations and assert their rights effectively. ### **2. Equipping Businesses with Practical, Inclusive Strategies** Recognising that businesses are struggling to implement meaningful, measurable DEI strategies, our solution offers: - **Customised Workplace Inclusion Audits:** Assessing current policies and identifying practical improvements to make workplaces more accessible, inclusive, and accommodating. - **Training for Leadership and HR Teams:** Providing actionable insights on how to support employees with disabilities and chronic illnesses beyond legal compliance. - **Flexible Work Implementation Consulting:** Helping businesses establish hybrid and remote work structures that benefit all employees, particularly those with health challenges. - **Inclusive Policy Development:** Supporting organisations in crafting and implementing policies that go beyond compliance to create real impact. - **Measurement and Impact Reporting:** Assisting businesses in tracking inclusion progress with clear KPIs that demonstrate success beyond box-ticking exercises. ### **3. Bridging the Gap Between Inclusion and Business Success** Our approach highlights that **inclusion isn't just an ethical obligation—it's a business advantage.** Studies show that diverse and inclusive workplaces see higher profitability, productivity, and innovation. We provide businesses with a roadmap to achieve this by: - Demonstrating the **business case** for disability inclusion through research-backed insights and case studies. - Supporting companies in leveraging the unique talents of neurodiverse individuals, who are 30% more innovative than their neurotypical counterparts. - Encouraging retention through workplace culture shifts that prioritise employee well-being and engagement. ### **4. Driving Systemic Change Through Advocacy and Awareness** We aim to shift public perception and business attitudes by: - **Raising awareness** through social media campaigns, public speaking, and partnerships that challenge outdated narratives. - **Collaborating with policymakers and advocacy groups** to push for systemic workplace reforms that promote long-term inclusivity. - **Providing a voice for those unheard**, ensuring their experiences and needs are at the forefront of discussions about workplace inclusion.
