Transition2<\/a> – a support centre for young adults – has moved to a new location in Derby city centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Transition2 supports people aged 18-25 years who are living with learning difficulties, learning disabilities, and\/or autism to become active, engaged members of their communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following 14 years at its base in Littleover, Derby, Transition2 has moved to Friar Gate Studios, part of Connect Derby<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

The move will allow the college to expand its services, including the creation of a new post-16 SEND hub.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From September, it will offer an exciting new range of learning programmes and services, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The World of Work programme \u2013 a preparation for employment course to develop transferrable job-related skills. Featuring catering training in the onsite training caf\u00e9, and enterprise opportunities within horticulture, joinery and retail along with multi-sector work tasters;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Supported Internships \u2013 focusing on securing paid employment. Featuring work placements, job coaching and mentoring and independent travel training;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sustainable Outcomes Service \u2013 a follow-on employment support and guidance programme, with wrap-around pastoral support; and<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A new Preparation for Adulthood SEND Hub to support young people as they transition into adulthood, helping them with careers, further education, and developing the skills they need to live independently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Councillor Paul Hezelgrave, Derby City Council<\/a>\u2019s cabinet member for young people and skills, said: “Transition2\u2019s long history of excellent work has taken an exciting new step with its move to Friar Gate Studios. The move will enable the facility to offer even more to our young people with SEND.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Simon Hancox, Head of Service at Transition2, added: \u201cOur move to a building in the heart of Derby\u2019s Student Quarter offers an excellent opportunity for our learners to navigate the city alongside their peers as they head to their education and workplace destinations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAdditionally, our central location opens up more opportunities for travel training and fostering valuable connections with families, local employers, adult social care, and health services.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
