About us
Bridge to Work CIC is a community-rooted organisation supporting neurodivergent, displaced, and system-affected adults through structured, one-to-one, human-led sessions. We work with people who feel overwhelmed, under-recognised, or left behind by traditional services — especially those navigating employment changes, burnout, or the impact of automation and exclusion. Founded by Martin — having studied both Business & HRM and, (incomplete) Adult Nursing course with lived experience of ADHD, Autism, and systemic barriers — we bring together insight, care, and pragmatism. We don’t offer one-size-fits-all answers. We offer calm, respectful space for people to regroup and move forward — at their own pace.
Our mission
At Bridge to Work CIC, our mission is to help people reconnect with confidence, purpose, and contribution — even when systems have shut them out.
We exist to offer an emotionally safe bridge for individuals who’ve been overlooked, mislabelled, or overwhelmed by fast systems and slow recovery paths.
We serve people navigating:
• Job loss in a shifting economy
• Neurodivergent experiences without proper support
• Burnout from constant pressure to mask, adapt, or outperform
Our mission is rooted in fairness — but delivered through care.
We believe real support should adapt to people, not the other way around.
We work to re-humanise how people re-enter work, learning, or meaningful activity.
Social Responsibility
Bridge to Work CIC recognises its role in responding to systemic failure with practical dignity.
We see how AI, austerity, and digital overload widen inequality — especially for people who think, feel, or move differently.
Our social responsibility is to:
• Reduce stress by creating low-pressure, non-clinical pathways
• Operate with transparency as a reinvestment-based CIC
• Actively design support that reflects lived, not assumed, experience
• Promote equity without requiring people to “perform” eligibility
• Stay people-funded, not profit-driven — so access is not conditional on income
We don’t just “help the vulnerable.”
We challenge the invisibility created by inaccessible systems — and walk beside those ready to try again, without shame.
As industries shift and society restructures, we choose to stay human-centred, trauma-aware, and outcome honest.
