Why work with SIC?

SIC operates as a not-for-profit. This means when you work with us, money goes back into supporting disabled and neurodivergent professionals with the skills and support they need at every stage of their careers.

We use our own lived experience of disability, chronic health, and neurodivergence and bring in consultants and case studies to represent the broader intersectionality of disability.

Everything we do is always informed by the latest data and research. It’s also informed by our community’s personal experiences, not just numbers.

What our clients say

  • “We have been lucky enough to work with SIC on a number of occasions, they have been able to provide us with a wealth of knowledge around equality, diversity and inclusion and have contributed to discussions around this for our Student Matters series. SIC has also worked with us on our Social Impact Programme, providing students with valuable insights about setting up an organisation that truly makes a difference. Their contribution has really made an impact on the programme, with one of the students reaching out to SIC for further mentoring. We look forward to continuing to work with SIC going forward.”

    — Kate Richmond, Careers Services, Leeds Beckett University

  • “SIC is extremely knowledgeable and insightful when it comes to accessibility and inclusion in the workplace. They bridge the gap between academic understanding and real life, no nonsense implementation, which has been invaluable for our small business and remote team, many of whom have a disability. SIC has supported us in creating a truly inclusive and accessible culture, which has a huge impact now and will be invaluable as we grow and attract more talent with a wide range of abilities and disabilities.”

    — Sophie Turton, Director, The Joyful (Brand and Marketing Agency)

  • “My accessibility session with SIC was eye-opening and fascinating. I had no idea how many important things I missed when it comes to accessibility, even as a fully remote business. SIC's advice was tailored, practical and easy to implement, and I'll most certainly be looking to them for advice and strategy in the future."

    — Heather Murray, Founder, Beesting Digital

  • “Very grateful to SIC for creating such a welcoming and opening environment free from any judgement partnered with gentle encouragement. Even though the session was only an hour long, I came away feeling more confident in the language I would use surrounding the topic of disability. It was also so insightful and invaluable to learn more about how our company could better practice inclusivity and to better understand disability in the workplace.”

  • "Alice is simply a delight. She’s a subject matter expert when it comes to neurodivergence at work and presents content with real authenticity. We worked together to deliver a session on neuroinclusion and she was accommodating, inclusive and made sure content was accessible and ‘fuss-free’. Her extensive experience brought a plethora of strong, relatable ideas and viewpoints to consider and content was tailored to suit our needs and audience. Alice is reliable and has shown-up as a skilled facilitator of fostering accessible workplaces – 10/10 would work with again – Get in touch with SIC for all things disability inclusion.
