🖤💛 Meet Ben 14 years of learning, growing and achieving with Nickel Support!
Ben has been part of Nickel Support for almost 14 years, and during that time he has developed so many valuable skills, from furniture upcycling and kitchen hygiene to checking food quality.
Today, Ben works in paid employment at our shop, where he takes on a range of responsibilities, including cleaning, polishing, stock takes, counting the morning till and processing customer orders. To name a few! 🛍️
But it’s about so much more than learning work skills. Ben shares how having a job has changed his life, giving him greater confidence, a sense of purpose and the opportunity to socialise and connect with others each week.
We’re incredibly proud of Ben and everything he has achieved. His journey is a wonderful example of what can happen when people are given the right opportunities and support. 🖤💛
