      Gov.UK definition of disability - You’re disabled under the Equality Act 2010 if you have a physical or mental impairment that has a ‘substantial’ and ‘long-term’ negative effect on your ability to do normal daily activities.

       

      What ‘substantial’ and ‘long-term’ mean

       

      ·       ‘substantial’ is more than minor or trivial, eg it takes much longer than it usually would to complete a daily task like getting dressed

      ·       ‘long-term’ means 12 months or more, eg a breathing condition that develops as a result of a lung infection

       

      Gov.UK definition of apprentice - Apprentices are aged 16 or over and combine working with studying to gain skills and knowledge in a specific job.

       

      I would like the above information to be provided to me as an electronic copy.

       

      If this request is too wide or unclear, I would be grateful if you could contact me as I understand that under the Act, you are required to advise and assist requesters.

       

      If any of this information is already in the public domain, please can you direct me to it, with page references and URLs if necessary.
