About Astriid
Our mission is to connect people with long-term health conditions with meaningful work.
Astriid helps bridge the gap between the Invisible Talent Pool (people with chronic illnesses who wish to pursue volunteering or employment), and the UK skills crisis.
Founded by David Shutts OBE following his cancer diagnosis, we believe that the value of work is far more than the wages paid. Employment provides routine, a sense of normality, challenges and rewards, and when approached correctly, can also facilitate a greater sense of wellbeing.
Your Impact
The funds we raise are used to sustain the everyday running of the Charity. They help us facilitate marketing and PR strategies to recruit businesses and candidates, and support the ongoing development of Astriid platform itself.
The more funds we generate, the further we can expand and refine our service, and ultimately, benefit the people who need it the most.
£10
could help fund our online advocacy and information for one month, and enable us to reach out to more people with long term conditions.
£32
could fund two hours of disability inclusion research, which can enable us to reach out to businesses to train them on inclusive employment.
£180
could fund one hour of support per month for one year to our candidates from our candidate support to help them find meaningful employment.
