Training Cafe
Our training cafe in the heart of Harrogate is training over 30 young adults with learning disabilities every week in the key skills they require for a future working in their local community.
Barista training, chef skills in the kitchen and customer service, not to mention the confidence and resilience building that working in a busy environment with a supportive team can provide.
The South American themed training facility opened with a grant from The National Lottery in 2022 and has quickly become a jewel in Harrogate's crown. The project is well supported by local visitors and volunteers and we have seen wonderful results from our specialist training created to develop people with learning disabilities from across the region.
The vocational qualifications we offer our members enables them to present their understanding and what they do in creative and flexible ways. This means that our members graduate with NCFE industry recognised qualifications to pursue their goals to work.
