Employers should make reasonable adjustments under the Equality Act 2010. These may be subsidised by the government scheme  which provides non medical help (including coaching, transport) as well as equipment, based on a workplace assessment. 

Reasonable adjustments should also be provided during recruitment processes. 

See the Peer Support Service's Health Ability Passport guide for more information on reasonable adjustments.
