Connect to Work is delivered across Norfolk by five specialist local organisations, working together to provide practical, personalised employment support for residents and employers.
Each delivery partner brings deep experience in supporting people with health conditions, disabilities, neurodiversity and complex barriers into sustainable work. Their local knowledge means support can be shaped around the needs of Norfolk’s communities, employers and labour market.
This partnership approach helps ensure that people can access the right support, from the right organisation, at the right time. Whether someone is looking for work, returning after time away, managing a health condition, or needs help to stay in their current role, our delivery partners provide one-to-one guidance built around the individual.

WorkWell
WorkWell is a new early-intervention work and health service for Norfolk and Suffolk, launching on 2nd November 2026. Commissioned by the ICB, it will provide low-intensity, holistic support for working-age people (16+) with a health condition or disability that is affecting their work, whether they need help to stay in work, return from sickness absence.
Each participant will receive a personalised assessment from a Work and Health Coach, backed by a multidisciplinary clinical team, and a tailored plan that can cover health support, workplace adjustments, employer liaison, and wider issues such as finances or housing. Support will typically last around eight weeks, with the service acting as a gateway into the wider work, health and skills system, where needed.
