Fiona, from the Autism Plus team, helped me find this volunteering opportunity, I’m so grateful for her support.
Ashley is now volunteering in a local café, where he is slowly becoming accustomed to working with different chefs. He finds his job interesting and manageable. His primary responsibility is to prepare boxes of cooked food that customers can either consume on the spot or store in their freezers. Ashley is enjoying being a part of a team and working in a productive environment, and he is making a conscious effort to be punctual and efficient in his work.
We are incredibly proud of Ashley and his achievements.
