At IMAGINE Homewares and Hampers, we don’t just create luxury homewares, candles, and hampers—we create opportunities. Our business is built on the foundation of supported employment, but what does that really mean?
Supported employment is more than just a workplace model; it’s a way of ensuring that people with disability have access to meaningful, fair, and fulfilling jobs in an environment that supports their success.
If you’ve ever wondered what supported employment involves and why it matters, here’s a closer look at how it works and why we’re passionate about it.
Supported employment is a system that provides on-the-job support, training, and accommodations to help people with disability thrive in the workforce. It ensures that individuals have access to stable employment while receiving the tools, guidance, and encouragement needed to succeed.
This can include:
At IMAGINE Homewares and Hampers, we provide hands-on opportunities for our employees to craft hand-poured soy candles, premium home fragrances, and beautifully curated hampers, helping them develop valuable skills in a supportive and respectful environment.
It Creates Genuine Opportunities
Finding employment can be challenging for people with disability due to barriers in traditional workplaces. Supported employment removes these barriers by offering accessible roles and structured support so employees can build careers they are proud of.
It Fosters Independence
Having a job is about more than just earning an income. It’s about gaining independence, confidence, and a sense of purpose. Supported employment empowers individuals to take control of their futures and contribute to their communities.
It Benefits Businesses and Society
Workplaces that embrace supported employment gain access to a diverse and talented workforce. Employees bring unique perspectives, skills, and dedication, which strengthens the workplace and helps businesses create high-quality, meaningful products—just like the ones we sell at IMAGINE.
Every candle, reed diffuser, and homeware item we produce is crafted with care by our incredible team. We focus on creating an environment where:
When you buy from IMAGINE Homewares and Hampers, you’re not just purchasing a product—you’re supporting real people, real skills, and real inclusion.
