Work Experience
Wanting work experience for your young person with additional needs but stuck to find an organization/business locally who can offer a week/2 weeks/a month?
Speak to Rachel Goodfellow on the Hidden Needs Trust Stand (Sherborne Market, Pageant Gardens), Sherborne Digby Hall Market) as she has had young people for work experience since the end of lockdown with her charity Hidden Needs Trust!
The work experience will be:
Helping Rachel with sourcing donations for the charity.
Helping to sort donations and then visit families with items, sometimes car loads!
Helping families as deemed appropriate, such as clearing their gardens or moving of furniture.
Helping to design posters for the website and social media.
Helping to plan fundraising events.
And much more…the charity is ever evolving and so being flexible and acting on new initiatives is an important aspect of the work.
Your young person will not only have great fun but also:
Receive a fully detailed account of what they have been doing ready for their CV, signed and dated and certificates of completion.
Will be encouraged to develop social skills, embedded with English and Mathematics in practical forms, develop life skills, and be physically active away from gadgets!!!
Plus, be able to work with other agencies and charitable organisations that Hidden Needs Trust supports.
In addition, be able to be active within the local community, meeting people from all walks of life, therefore learning about what is required in the community to ensure families and individuals are supported.
