HEALTHIER YOU
DIABETES PREVENTION PROGRAMME
GP PRESENTATION
Ingeus evolved from an Australian start-up to become a global provider of services that assist thousands of
citizens every day.
The original insight that created Ingeus in Australia was one that quickly found success in the UK – that people with
barriers to work should be supported to thrive rather than left alone to just survive.
The original belief, that work is good for people, is now a mainstream view in public policy. Ingeus has built on this
basic principle and created new, better ways to support people with barriers in their lives.
In the UK, Ingeus took its knowledge, skills and vision and applied it to other areas of people’s lives so that we now
deliver services in health, employment, youth services and justice.
Since 2002, Ingeus has expanded into countries across North America, Europe and the Asia-Pacific region.
The next phase in our journey
In late 2018 the Ingeus Group was acquired by APM. The two companies have a huge amount in common. Most
significantly, both organisations are purpose-led with a commitment to strong values, to helping people lead
successful and fulfilling lives and to offering great opportunities and careers for employees.
Together, APM and Ingeus employ over 5,500 people delivering services in health, disability, ageing, defence,
employment, justice, youth, apprenticeships, skills and training. Across 10 countries we will support over 350,000
people to improve their lives each year.
We think that our two companies’ combined experience and expertise creates a great opportunity. In the UK we are
now working to bring together APM and Ingeus into one, even better organisation.

3Our Values
Our values are defined by our people to sum up what it means to
work at Ingeus. Whatever job we do, and whoever we serve, we
always try to live by these values.
