WorkWell Hunts

What to Expect

WorkWell is a free service that helps people who may be struggling to find or retain a job due to a health need. A Work and Health coach will talk to you about your goals and then help you find the right support by connecting you with different services, like health professionals and local activities and support.

To sign up to the programme, simply follow this link to The Joy App, and click the blue ‘make a referral’ button in the top right.  There is no need to create an account just click Continue under ‘I don’t have an account’. Once you’ve filled in the short form, a work and health coach will contact you within 48 hours, using the contact details you have provided. You do need to meet certain criteria to be accepted on to this scheme and these can be found in the ‘More Information’ section below.

WorkWell wants to make sure everyone feels better and has a good chance at getting a job, so you can do both – work and feel healthy!
