Timesavers is a Social Enterprise which will provide an Office Administration Service for voluntary sector organisations in West Lancs serving Burscough, Ormskirk, Skelmersdale, Tarleton, Parbold. It will give work experience opportunities for people with learning disabilities who have found it difficult to find paid jobs in office administration.
Andy, Helen and Jon.
Timesavers will start out as a voluntary service until strong enough to generate an income so the people who are running the social enterprise will not lose out by volunteering in the beginning as they will still receive the benefits they are entitled to.
The people involved with Timesavers have wanted to find volunteer or paid work in an Office for a long time, but have not been successful. So they have now decided to provide their own work in an enterprising way for themselves and others in similar circumstances.
We feel that working in this way will not only enable them to keep busy and build up their skills but also they will be able to give something back to society and show what people with learning disabilities can achieve.
The 3 people who are running the social enterprise have learning disabilities. Each member of the social enterprise has an advocate who will help to support the running of the social enterprise.
Thank-you for visiting today.
