Our candidates

Our pioneering model worksit’s been tried and tested over ten years. We create meaningful opportunities for people with learning disabilities and autism – known as ‘candidates’ to reflect their readiness for work. 

In 2018, with the help of Team Domenica’s personalised training programmes, Jack secured a job at Brighton i360. He was thrilled to receive his first pay cheque and loves spending his earnings on days out with his boyfriend.

Over the years, the i360 has gone through several changes – and through it all, Jack has remained a constant. His reliability, hard work and positive attitude have made him a real asset to his team. Jack loves his job and is just one of the many young people we have supported into the workplace.

I’ve been working [at Brighton i360] for seven or eight years. That’s a long time I must admit! Team Domenica helped me get my job and I am very happy here. I feel confident. I like to meet customers and staff to be honest. I am proud!
