Real experience, real purpose, real progress - that’s what Norman’s work placement is all about 💙

Once a week, Norman spends two hours volunteering in the staff canteen at Myton Food Group in Rushden.

It’s part of his journey towards paid employment, helping him build workplace confidence, develop practical skills and gain real experience in a supportive environment.

Everything Norman learns at his placement supports what he, and all of our members, develop in centre - where we have 5* food hygiene ratings ✨

For our members, volunteering placements like this are an important step between learning and employment, offering structure, purpose and progression.

We’re so proud of Norman for the commitment and enthusiasm he brings, and grateful to Myton Food Group for providing such a positive opportunity.

We’ve been honouring the fallen across our three centres to mark Remembrance Day ❤️

We observed a two-minute silence, took part in group discussions to learn more about the meaning of the day, and created beautiful silhouettes and wreaths together in remembrance.

Our craft stalls are about so much more than just selling 💙

Our members create handmade items - from jewellery and pottery to textiles and printed goods.

They then take these items out into the community to run craft stalls, gaining real-world work experience.

Ian, Tristram, Donald and Ben recently spent the day at Kettering's Newlands Shopping Centre, showcasing items our members have handmade.

Here’s what they’re developing:

Social skills: Talking to customers and starting conversations

Numeracy: Handling money, calculating totals, giving change

Confidence: Being brilliant ambassadors, proudly representing Teamwork Trust and their fellow members

Independence: Managing a stall, making decisions, problem-solving

And here’s what the team said about their day at the centre:

"I like to sell things and talk to customers." - Ian 💬

"This is a good experience for me and I love sharing what we do." - Tristram 💬

"I'm proud of what we do at Teamwork Trust." - Donald 💬

"I like meeting people." - Ben 💬

Every craft stall we host is an opportunity for our members to build skills and confidence that will help them to achieve their version of independence. And they're brilliant at it 👏

Take a look inside our new Learning and Opportunities Hub 😲

Funded by The National Lottery Community Fund, the Hub at our Wellingborough centre provides our members with a modern learning space.

The creation of the Hub has been a real team effort, with our staff team and members collaborating throughout to bring to life the most amazing space 💙

And we’re now mirroring this project at our Kettering centre, to create another Learning and Opportunities Hub for our members.

We're very saddened to hear the news that Workbridge will be closing.

For more than 40 years, Workbridge has supported people with mental illness, learning disabilities, autism and brain injury.

Some of our staff members have contributed directly to Workbridge's success over the years, providing a long-standing safe, purposeful space for people to learn, grow and connect.

We're thinking of our colleagues, volunteers and service users at Workbridge, who will all be affected by the closure.

Workbridge's loss will leave a huge hole in our community, but we'll do all we can to make sure that vital opportunities for people with autism and learning disabilities remain available across our county 💙

Spooky season brought plenty of fun across our centres last week 👻

From pumpkin carving and fancy dress to chocolate making with Carl from The Ministry of Chocolate, our members had a frightfully fun time celebrating Halloween 🎃

There were crafts, games, discos, delicious treats and even a haunted castle play performed by our Corby drama group - a fab few days full of creativity, laughter and togetherness!

And alongside all the Halloween activities, there were also some brilliant educational sessions and experiences for our members, making it a fantastic week all round 💙

We raised over £150 for Breast Cancer Now at our recent Wear It Pink Day 💗

Our Kettering centre was full of smiles, treats and colour for the event, with members of the Nottingham Chopper Club joining us.

The Club has a personal connection to the cause, and wanted to give back and raise awareness - all while bringing lots of joy to our members, who love having the Club visit us.

As well as enjoying coffee, cake and great company, members took part in a session on breast health awareness – encouraging everyone to 'get to know their normal' and check their breasts regularly.

Our member Kali has been volunteering at an RSPCA Northamptonshire charity shop for several months.

And she now does it independently, with minimal staff support 👏

Kali has various responsibilities within the shop - from customer service and stock management, to shop maintenance and teamwork with colleagues.

Her confidence has grown so much, which has been lovely to see, and she thoroughly enjoys being part of the RSPCA team.

She has truly embraced her role with enthusiasm and pride and we're so proud of everything she has achieved, and continues to achieve.

With aspirations of potentially looking for paid work in retail 💭

“It’s helping me to gain more confidence and skills and I hope, in the future, the experience will lead to paid work in retail. I really enjoy working on the till and I'm hoping I can get some training too. I’d like to be able to save for the future.”

A big thank you to the RSPCA Northamptonshire team for working with us to offer our members rich, meaningful workplace experiences.

And a huge well done to Kali! 💙

Order placed, completed and picked up within 24 hours ✅

Our fabulous photographer Stu Vincent Photography placed a special order for branded tote bags, and our members were able to get straight to work in our Printing Enterprise.

The bags were designed, printed and packaged to the highest standards. And Stu popped in to collect them just a day after placing the order.

Another very happy customer 🙌

Well done, team!
