Our Team
Edward Tidbury - Access To Work Programme Manager
‘I am pleased to confess I am now entering my seventh year with RBLI in which time I have been an advisor, a team leader and finally a Programme Manager. Prior to this I spent 21 years as a civil servant working for both the Department of Trade and Industry and JobCentre Plus. I entered the disability support field in 1995 and I have never looked back closing my government carrier with 5 years on Access to Work. In my personal life I have a penchant for vintage cars.’
