Chris came to Hamelin with a background in IT, looking for a change. He started off volunteering in out IT studio, but soon saw first-hand the incredible work our support staff were doing.
Now he’s a full-time support worker, making a real difference.
Jacob started his journey with Hamelin on our Ability Works programme which supports autistic adults and people with learning disabilities to build the skills to find employment.
The programme has helped him develop his self-confidence and he is now a volunteer admin.
We've unveiled a brand new sensory trail at our Sutton Farm site in Rochford for autistic adults, people with learning disabilities, and those living with dementia.
This was made possible thanks to funding from
Active Essex and Ford.
