Accessing Access to Work for ARC
Adults in Great Britain with an ADHD diagnosis who are in, or are soon to be in paid work, may be eligible for the Access to Work Grant. This grant may be able to fund some or all of your participation in ARC.
Eligibility and use of the Access to Work grant is at the discretion of your Access to Work assessor. We have outlined below the process of how we work with Access to Work for funding ARC.
Step 1: Applying for the Grant
-
Check whether you are eligible for the Access to Work grant
-
Apply to the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) for the grant
-
If you are successful in your application, you can then apply to DWP to use some/all of the grant to fund your participation in ARC.
Using the Grant to Fund Group Coaching with ADHDEd:
Given Access to Work is assessed on a case-by-case basis, we require payment in advance of accessing the ARC programme. There are two methods for use the Access to Work grant to fund ARC.
Method 1 – prepay your enrolment and claim back from Access to Work:
-
Enrol in your preferred ARC module and cohort at www.adhded.co.uk/arc, including making full payment of your enrolment fee.
-
Write to us at contact@adhded.co.uk informing us that you would like an invoice for submitting to Department for Work and Pensions for payment of your course fees.
-
Submit the invoice to DWP for reimbursement against your grant.
-
DWP will reimburse you from your Access to Work grant balance.
Method 2 – register your interest in ARC, claim from Access to Work and enrol later:
-
Write to us at contact@adhded.co.uk and let us know that you would like to apply to Access to Work for funding. Please let us know your preferred module (i.e. ARC 1, ARC 2 or ARC 3).
-
We will provide you with an invoice for submitting to Access to Work for payment.
-
Once we receive payment from Access to Work, we will contact you to let you know that payment has been received and this will be held on credit for you to choose the cohort that best suits your schedule.
