This page has been updated! Originally published in June 2020, the Voluntary Reporting Framework was updated January 2024, and our Disability Confident Leader Certificate was updated August 2023.


We are pleased to announce AbilityNet has achieved Disability Confident Leader status as of 16 June 2020. Our status was last renewed on 2 August 2023 with the period of award lasting through to 29 July 2026. Prior to 16 June 2020 we were a Disability Confident Employer, but this new status puts us in the top tier of the Disability Confident government lead scheme, amongst organisations such as Barclays, BT, the Cabinet Office, Fujitsu, Heathrow, John Lewis Partnership, Lloyds Banking Group and many other household names.

The Disability Confident scheme aims to help employers make the most of the opportunities provided by employing disabled people. It is voluntary and has been developed by employers and disabled people's representatives. As experts in disability and technology we are ecstatic to have achieved the accolade of a Disability Confident Leader.

AbilityNet has always sought to draw from the widest possible pool of talent and to ensure that we have a working environment which promotes success for all employees.
