☕✨ Partner Spotlight | Here4Hospitality ✨☕
"How can young people gain experience if every employer asks for experience?" 🤔
That challenge is exactly why Here4Hospitality, a social enterprise program run by Youth Projects, was created. 🌟
Led by Youth Coach Glen Fraser, the program provides young people aged 15-25 with the opportunity to gain real-world hospitality experience in a supportive and inclusive environment. Over a four-week program, participants receive hands-on training in a working café, building practical barista skills, customer service experience, communication techniques, and most importantly, confidence. ☕🙌
Unlike a short course, participants gain meaningful workplace experience by making coffees, serving customers, operating POS systems, and learning the day-to-day realities of hospitality. ✅
What truly stands out is the program's person-centred approach. With a strong focus on supporting neurodivergent young people and those facing barriers to employment, Here4Hospitality creates a safe space where mistakes are welcomed as part of the learning process, confidence is nurtured, and every achievement is celebrated. 💙
At 4gr, we are incredibly grateful for employers and community partners like Glen and the team at Youth Projects who are opening doors, building confidence, and creating pathways for young people to thrive. 👏
