National Development Team for Inclusion (NDTI) has implemented dedicated cancer support for its employees.
The independent not-for-profit organisation employs experts in learning disability, autism, ageing and older people, mental health, and children and young people.
Through the benefit, which is provided by Reframe Cancer, NDTI’s staff will be offered comprehensive assistance. This will include a variety of services to meet individual needs, such as advice and support through cancer nurse specialists, and a cancer support manager to help with appointments, transportation to appointments or return-to-work planning.
NDTI’s employees will also have access to a range of online informative materials and resources on cancer awareness and preventative measures.
Providing the support highlights the organisation’s commitment to offer employee benefits and wellbeing assistance, as well as helping to tackle cancer and its impact on employees and the workplace.
Sally Richens, executive director at NDTI, said: “We’re delighted to be partnering with Reframe Cancer to help support our team. Statistics predict one in two people will get cancer at some point in their lives. That’s potentially half of our team who could need support to navigate through a cancer journey. It’s comforting to know that expert advice and support is on hand.”
National Development Team for Inclusion is also an accredited living wage employer, an age-friendly employer, a mindful employer, part of the Race at Work Charter, and is disability confident committed.
