"Patience’s dedication to her learning and development has been remarkable to see. This spring, she completed the first year of our Employability and Independence Programme with a 100% attendance mark. Her commitment is an investment into her future and a gift to her peers as she sets an example for every trainee to aspire to.
Patience’s commitment has paid off, earlier this year she was offered a Cafe Apprentice position - her opportunity to put everything she’s learnt in our training space into action. It’s not been easy - navigating complex till systems and allergen procedures has been a huge learning curve. As ever, Patience has given the apprenticeship her very best and has become a much loved member of our cafe team".
