Help wins as Australian Disability Employer of 2019
National excellence award
Help Enterprises, a leading Queensland based not-for-profit social enterprise supporting people with disability, has recently been awarded the National Excellence in Disability Employment Excellence Award for Supported Employment.
This award recognises HELP as a provider of supported employment who displays innovative training practices for employees with disability, provides high quality employment conditions, and also provides quality employment outcomes for people with disability in the long term.
The award was presented to Help Enterprises at the recent National Disability Services (NDS) Disability At Work Summit, held in Adelaide.
“Realistically for us, it is great recognition that the Supported Employment model we practice here at Help Enterprises works and is adding value to the lives of our 370 supported employees – creating an overall positive social and economic outcome in their life.
HELP’s Chief Operating Officer, Mr Denver Fresser
There are far too many people to thank individually, but importantly, I want to thank the employees themselves who are the true deserved winners of this award.
Their enthusiasm, dedication and passion for their work and for HELP, is amazing and I am extremely grateful to each and every one of them.”
Help Enterprises operates a number of successful commercial businesses, all employing people with disability and reinvesting profits back into delivering high quality care for those who come to HELP for additional disability support.
As a Queensland born and bred not-for-profit organisation for over 50 years, HELP’s mission and purpose remains the same, to ‘Enhance the lifestyle and independence of people with disability.’
