SPD is a local charity set up to help people with disabilities of all ages to maximise their potential and integrate them into mainstream society.

Through over 20 programmes that encompass early intervention, therapy, vocational training, assistive technology, day care, as well as educational, employment and social service support, we serve people with physical, sensory and learning disabilities.

Founded in 1964 by a group of Rotarians, we were known as Society for Aid to the Paralysed (SAP). In the earlier years, SAP provided employment opportunities at its sheltered workshop to people with disabilities who had difficulties seeking open employment. We were renamed Society for the Physically Disabled (SPD) in May 1998 and subsequently to just SPD in July 2014 to better reflect the work that we do – serving people beyond physical disabilities.

Executive in Singapore
on October 5, 2023
Good work life balance
Good work life balance but lack of progression and learning opportunity. Ability to come up with own projects to do and supportive managers and team mates

Great working environment and management
Great colleagues and management, fun working environment. It can get tiring and stressful at times with the amount of clients. Management understands our concerns. The CEO often walks around to check on different programmes, he's very hands on.
Admin Executive in Tiong Bahru Estate
on March 2, 2020
Poor
Pending whether CEO likes or dislikes you or not kind of Culture. Nobody dares tell him otherwise than his ideas. If he likes you, you can resigne and allow to return for employment for 5 times in some cases.

Very friendly environment
I was there on voluntary purposes and was on my 1st year diploma break. My colleagues who told me what to do were very friendly and patient with me especially when I was facing problems in certain data entry.
Volunteer in Singapore

Fun and exciting
The workplace culture is a lot of fun with new experiences almost everyday. Each day is a new learning experience. It gives an oppurtunity to be creative in many ways.
