Social enterprise, Well Grounded, trains people from a range of backgrounds to become baristas. We are one of their ‘academy’ sites, where candidates follow a structured development plan over five weeks. During this time, we observe their progress with a view to offering them employment. Our first student, Wing Wong, was shy at first, but soon became more confident – in both talking to customers and making coffee. Her time with us was a great start to a promising career.
