I’ve been at Post19 since September 2016.
My hobbies involve watching movies, especially action films, listening to music, walking and playing golf. I would describe myself as quiet, friendly and kind. I can be quite cheeky, and I have a surprisingly dark sense of humour… I’m polite, and very hard working.
I enjoy my enterprise19 role as a graphic designer and a Shop Assistant. I help out in many different areas, from counting stock to updating this website. I also use Facebook to post content, create hashtags and plan product descriptions. I enjoy my job because it gives me a chance to learn new skills. I have done some work experience before with The British Heart Foundation, I stacked all the CDs and DVDs and things like that. Enterprise19 is different because it’s specifically for people with learning disabilities, if this didn’t exist then how in the future would a lot of us be able to get jobs and careers?
I think enterprise19 is about showing people how to run a business. It gives people with disabilities a chance to find out what it’s like in the world of work, how difficult it can be, and it’s good at bringing out people’s skills.
