It's April 21st and there's a group of work placements huddled around cups of coffee excitedly planning their day. These individuals are people that have joined Jamie's to benefit from our training, because they have been socially excluded and need some help into the employment market.
They're excited because they have been working all month refurbishing the computers that have been donated by local businesses, which are now ready to be shipped to the University of Bangladesh where they will be used by students who are also improving their prospects through training and education.
Our work placements are awaiting the arrival of the container and making final checks ready to begin loading when it comes. One of the placements will be looking after the stock management system and ticking off all the assets as they leave. One will be operating the fork-truck. A few more will practice their manual handling skills, as they arrange the boxes securely on the container. And all of them will enjoy the team celebration when they have finished and begin to feel proud of their fantastic achievements.
This would not be possible without the support we receive from our customers. A big thank you to them!
