Pathway Workshop is a charity providing meaningful training, volunteering and employment opportunities for people affected by a range of disabilities, learning impairments and other disadvantages presenting a barrier to employment. Trainees are offered supervised placements during which they can gain practical skills in carpentry, woodwork and associated skills as well as improving self-esteem, social skills, team-working and general employability. In our fully equipped workshop our trainees produce a variety of wooden products large and small which are sold and proceeds reinvested into the charity towards more training placements. We are increasingly offering non-workshop training experiences, e.g. sales administration, customer service. Clients are referred to us directly by organisation such as Stroke Association, Response Organisation, Julian Housing, Turning Point.
