About Access Support Apprentices

Access Support Apprentices is part of Access Support Group, a UK education support organisation bringing together specialist support delivery, practical technology and user-friendly systems for learners with additional needs.

We support training providers working with apprentices who may need additional learning support, reasonable adjustments, specialist mentoring, study skills support, Assistive Technology or clearer evidence of support delivered.

Our service has been developed from direct experience in the disability support sector, including Non-Medical Help provision, needs assessment, Assistive Technology, support coordination and digital record keeping.

Our Background And Experience

Access Support Apprentices has been developed from years of experience supporting learners with disabilities, neurodivergent needs, mental health difficulties and specific barriers to learning.

Through our wider group, we have experience across higher education, Disabled Students’ Allowance support, Non-Medical Help delivery, Assistive Technology, student support coordination and support administration.

Our related Non-Medical Help provider, Access Your Ability, was founded in 2014 and has supported thousands of students with specialist mentoring and study skills support. This experience has shaped our understanding of what good support looks like: it must be personal, practical, well matched to the learner and delivered by people who understand the barriers learners face.

We have also developed Touch Point, a digital system designed from real provider experience to manage support bookings, session records, timesheets, learner sign-off, invoicing and evidence. This gives us a practical understanding of both sides of support delivery: the learner experience and the provider’s need for clear records, efficient administration and audit-ready evidence.

Our Mission

Our mission is simple: to help apprentices access the right support and help training providers manage that support with confidence.

We aim to combine specialist human support, practical technology and clear evidence so that apprentice support is easier to arrange, easier to deliver and easier to manage.
