It's National Care Leavers Week! This week is an important chance to shine a light on the experiences of care leavers and to advocate for the recognition that too often there are children in care who don't receive the standard of 'care'.

Today is the day to declutter and donate to charity! We've already set up at the Together Trust Centre in Cheadle waiting for your kind donations. We'll be here all day until 4:30pm.

Our amazing Stockport Speech and Language Therapy team held a bake sale to raise money for their service! The team of keen bakers put together an impressive spread of cakes, brownies and other sweet treats. The team are raising funds for Switch Toys, used for supporting the assessments and therapy carried out by the team. Switch adapted toys help our young people with physical and visual impairments to access play and leisure and support their communication. They say "We’ve really enjoyed doing it. It’s been really lovely to have something in mind our service needs and to support raise awareness in the setting." If you want to support them, you can still donate at: https://lnkd.in/dWfcVBiG

Hey LinkedIn community! Myself and Melanie Dunn are both really excited to be on the look out for two amazing Executive Assistants to support us, based in the North West.

We’re looking forward to meeting you 😁
Three talented students from Bridge College—McKenzie, Jamal, and Bayley—have started work experience with Sodexo through Bridge College’s Supported Internship Program. This incredible opportunity allows them to explore diverse roles within a global leader in sustainable food services, with the ultimate goal of securing paid employment after a year. They have been involved in various areas of Sodexo, discovering opportunities in health and safety, food preparation, security, and administration. Before diving into their hands-on experiences, they have honed their skills in a classroom environment, learning what it takes to be an outstanding employee and mastering the skills needed for success in different areas. In collaboration with DFN Project SEARCH , Bridge College and Sodexo are dedicated to ensuring a smooth transition for our students. DFN Project SEARCH is a transformative one-year transition-to-work program designed for young adults with learning disabilities and/or autism. Well done and best of luck to McKenzie, Jamal, and Bayley!
Hifza loves talking to people. She says work experience makes her feel more confident and loves being part of the community. For her work experience at East Manchester Leisure Centre, she's had to do it all: from talking to customers to working with digital systems. Work experience is really important for disabled young people. Getting practical hands-on skills in the workplace can have a huge impact on their independence and future. We are so incredibly proud of Hifza, and students at Bridge College that push themselves to try things outside of their comfort zone. We couldn't do this without the help of kind employers who allow our students to experience a busy workplace. If you know a business that could offer work experience for a few hours a week, please get in touch!
