OUR WORK

Landau is a supported employment and work related training organisation, providing one-to-one, individual support for people with learning disabilities. Landau is committed to ensure that every person with a learning disability has the opportunity to work and fulfil their potential. It is our aim to provide individuals with high quality, tailored support to enable them to overcome obstacles to fulfilling their potential in society. Our Principles of Service have evolved from consultation with our service users and staff, and embody the values of the organisation. OUR CULTURE

Landau operates an open culture which reflects the individual and person centred nature of the services we provide. The style of management and the systems and procedures we have developed enable us to deliver excellent services with roles and responsibilities defined to give clear accountability. Senior management are kept close to the point of service delivery, this has resulted in a flattened hierarchy of only two levels from front line support workers to the Charity Manager.

World Mental Health Day 💚

We asked members of the Landau team to share what mental health means to them, how they look after their own wellbeing, and what they would say to someone who may be struggling.

Their answers are a reminder that looking after our mental health can look different for everyone - whether that’s getting outside, making time for the things we enjoy, talking to someone we trust, or simply taking a moment to reset.

Most importantly, you don’t have to face things on your own.

If you're struggling or need someone to talk to, support is available:
Mind: 0300 102 1234
Samaritans: 116 123, free to call, day or night, 365 days a year.

If you need urgent help with your mental health, you can also contact NHS 111 in England. It's okay to ask for help.

💙 A new chapter for Landau in Telford

We are pleased to be introducing our brand new Day Opportunities centre, "Learn, Work & Thrive", in Telford - a dedicated space designed to support people to build skills, grow in confidence and work towards their individual goals.

The centre will be home to our IN2 Employment pathway, supporting participants to develop practical and workplace skills, explore their interests and work towards suitable paid employment, with personalised support throughout their journey.

From learning and practical activities at the centre to travel training, exploring different job roles and support in the workplace, the programme is designed around each individual and what they want to achieve.

We’re looking forward to welcoming guests to our Open Day today and sharing more about our new centre, our plans and the opportunities it will create for people in Telford.

Learn, Work & Thrive - your goals, your future, your way. 💙

A huge congratulations to Michaela on an incredible achievement! 👏🏃‍♀️

On 27th September, Michaela completed a Half Marathon, running an impressive 21.53km in just 2 hours and 32 minutes!

Not only did she take on this fantastic challenge, but she also raised an amazing £780, which she has generously chosen to donate to Landau to benefit our learners. 💙

Over the coming weeks, Michaela will be spending some time with our Learner Voice, speaking to learners and gathering their ideas about how the money could be used to make the biggest impact across our provision.

We’re incredibly grateful for Michaela’s dedication, determination and generosity — and even more impressed that she somehow managed to do all of this without looking like she’d broken a sweat! 😄

A massive well done, Michaela, and thank you for choosing to support Landau and our learners. What an achievement! 👏

📚 A new space to pause, relax and recharge

We’ve recently given our library at our Wellington Study Programme a little refresh! ✨

The newly refurbished space has been created as a calm and cosy area for learners to take a break, pick up a book, catch up with peers or simply have some quiet time during their day.

We know that having somewhere comfortable and welcoming to step away from the classroom can make a difference. Whether learners want to enjoy some quiet reading time, have a chat with friends or take a moment to reset, the space gives everyone the opportunity to use it in a way that works for them. 💙

And with a growing collection of books and games, there’s plenty to explore! 📖🎲

We’re really pleased with how it’s turned out and hope our learners enjoy having a space that feels comfortable, inclusive and their own. 🥰

Celebrating Landau’s journey through 2025 – in our 30th year!

On Friday 18th September, we were delighted to host our Annual General Meeting (AGM) at our Newstead Centre in Stoke-on-Trent.

This year’s AGM felt particularly significant as 2025 marked Landau’s 30th year – three decades of supporting people to learn, grow and move towards brighter futures.

The event gave us a fantastic opportunity to reflect on our journey throughout 2025, celebrate the achievements across our services and share some of the success stories that demonstrate the difference our teams make every day.

We heard from Phil Taylor, CEO, and Rachel Laver, Chair, who reflected on Landau’s progress during the year, alongside updates from across our services:

Nicki Ulloa – Employment Services
Jo Edwards – Social Care Provision
Sophie Wilkinson – Education Services
Eric Mills – Finance Manager

We were also joined by Louise Osselton from CBSL Accountants, who talked us through Landau’s annual accounts.

A particularly special part of the day was hearing from Rhys, one of our Social Care learners and a Landau Ambassador, who shared his own journey with Landau. Hearing directly from the people we support is always a powerful reminder of why we do what we do.

We’re incredibly grateful to everyone who joined us, took the time to hear about our work and helped us celebrate everything achieved during 2025.

As we celebrate 30 years of Landau, we’re proud of how far we’ve come and excited about what the future holds.

Thank you to everyone who has been part of Landau’s journey – past and present. Here’s to the next chapter!
