Recently, our Medway Supported Employment group raised £111 for YoungMinds through a bake sale, building teamwork, communication, and enterprise skills along the way! Young people in the group baked their own goods and also provided some shop-bought items, along with hot drinks, for a small fee. The bake sale took place at Medway Community Hub, a bemix Supported Employment classroom venue. People in bemix workforce and other businesses based at the Community Hub were invited to attend. The turnout was fantastic, and the group exceeded their target of £100 by raising an impressive £111 in total!

At The Eco Shed, everyone is busy creating beautiful, one-of-a-kind items using reclaimed wood! Recently, Robert, Grant and David have been working on projects both personal and creative - crafting stunning chessboards! Each new project in The Eco Shed is an opportunity to learn new skills - this time whilst making thoughtful gifts for family members. The chessboard projects began with Robert. Robert’s own project, creating both a chessboard and draughts board, sparked an interest among the rest of the group - soon others began planning their own creative works!
