Active in Hell is our partnership with IHC’s IDEA Services – an award-winning training initiative, it has given 100 young people with an intellectual disability paid work experience in store kitchens across the country.
Adrian Gordon of Wellington became our 100th trainee in 2017. The paid training programme consists of 12 two-hour shifts, in which participants learn everything from food safety to how to create a devilishly good pizza. AIH was recognised at the 2016 Diversity Awards with the Diversability Award.
