We had another amazing week last week, so many different abilities, strengths, weaknesses to overcome – but all being done by an amazing team that want nothing more than to provide our young people with confidence, being comfortable and igniting their spark!

COOKING

Homemade Garlic Bread, Chicken Curry, Rice & Home Made Wedges and Tomato based chicken and veg, rice and wedges with meringue nests with whipped cream and fresh fruit for desert – All this will feed 8 people for just £10.62! Teaching kids about healthy options, fun options, how to create amazing food on a budget – life skills that will stand the test of time! “These kids amaze me” – Daisy Upson – Pushforward Team Member

WELDING

“So Leon (Director) said when I first started that G wanted to build a Locomotive, I thought “let’s balance expectations here” but persevered. Met her and suggested building a safe where she can lock away bad thoughts/wishes/people in the form of a Loco (imposing/powerful/heavy etc) and call it the Pain Express!
Was dubious at first yet out of a scrap gas bottle and some scrounged sheet steel it’s actually starting to take shape, she’s done great. All this with her hyper-sensitive hearing which, in a steel fab shop is a BIG issue. Very proud of her.” – George Bacon – Pushforward Team Member

FITNESS & FUN

Working off some young energy on a climbing wall. Fitness, fun, new skills.
