DFN Project SEARCH is an internationally recognised, work-focused supported internship programme for young people aged 18 - 29 with learning disabilities and/or who are neurodivergent. The programme actively prepares participants for the world of work and supports their transition into full-time, paid employment.

Commissioned by West Lothian Council, and delivered with coaching from the Supported Employment Service and teaching from Adult Learning, interns are based full-time with a host business and receive structured mentoring throughout the programme. This year, our host business is the local logistics firm, GXO.
