Remploy creates independence for disabled people through work.

Increasingly, the company is focusing on finding disabled people jobs in mainstream employment through Remploy Interwork, its specialist recruitment service for people with a health condition or disability. Last year, Remploy Interwork helped more than 4,300 into jobs with outside employers such as BT, Asda and Christian Salvesen.

Remploy Interwork works in partnership with Jobcentre Plus and some of the UK's top employers, offering a range of services to develop disabled jobseekers' skills, including pre-employment training and recruitment programmes.

This year, the company is opening city centre branches as part of a drive to significantly increase the number of jobs that it finds for disabled people in mainstream employment. The first of Remploy's high-street branches are opening in Birmingham, Plymouth and Leeds.

In addition to its recruitment service, Remploy also employs disabled people within its own service and manufacturing businesses. Remploy is a non-departmental public body and receives an annual government grant of £111m.

With an adaptable workforce, experienced in manufacturing and provision of quality services in specific markets, it's not surprising that Remploy's customer list includes major companies such as Ford, Unipart, Wedgwood and Proctor and Gamble, among others.
