Another Access to Work question

itsthelittlethings

I’d like to apply to Access to Work for a job coach for a while. I think I would be eligible and I think it would be very useful for me. I’ve heard that you have to pay up front and they pay you back. Has anyone used it and how long does it take for them to pay you back, to get some idea of how much money I’d need to have to apply.

 I had a work coach and didn't pay anything. Only thing i and now my hubby pay upfront is taxis. They take a month to be paid

I saw you can get a job coach via Access to Work rather than getting funding and choosing your own. Were they any good?
