Working Wales is bringing back its inclusive careers and information event to Cardiff.
The event will take place at the Cardiff Careers Wales centre in Churchill House in the city centre on Wednesday 17 June.
This follows a similar event last year which welcomed more than 240 attendees and was widely praised for its inclusive and supportive environment.
One participant shared:
“Looking for work when you're neurodivergent is daunting, so the fact there is an inclusive jobs fair is amazing.”
Another attendee said:
“I hope that there are more events like this.”
Building on this success, the event returns with a continued focus on accessibility and inclusion.
Event details:
Date: Wednesday 17 June 2026
Time: 10am – 1pm (five bookable sessions within this time)
Location: Cardiff Careers Wales Centre, Churchill House, 17 Churchill Way, Cardiff, CF10 2HH
Tickets: Free to attend, booking is essential
Book here.
The event will bring together inclusive employers, training providers and support organisations. Attendees will be able to explore jobs, apprenticeships, volunteering and training opportunities. There will also be opportunities to speak directly with organisations and receive tailored support from Careers Wales careers advisers and employability coaches.
Designed for people who are neurodivergent or suspect they may be neurodivergent, the event will offer a supportive and accessible environment. Quieter sessions and staggered entry times will help create a calmer space for those who may benefit from a less busy setting.
