I just wanted to extend a huge thank you to Northern Powergrid for hosting the most fabulous #WorkExperience day for Zak Martin this week. Special thanks go to Mikolaj Kukawski for reaching out and making it happen, Zak had the best day and thoroughly enjoyed sharing his amazing knowledge again. Watching the linesmen from Circet IRE & UK in action, was incredible, what a team. They also spent time chatting to Zak, after they’d completed their project. We certainly packed lots into the day and met some great people, thanks to each and every one of you for your kindness and time. It’s companies and individuals like this who make such a difference to #Autistic people like Zak. People who go the extra mile to include and provide #Support based around their #SpecialInterests, it certainly boosted his #MentalHealth. I think it’s fair to say that Zak, as usual impressed everyone he met with his outstanding knowledge. We now need to find a company who see his #value, embrace his talent and find him a #WorkPlacement, to utilise his unique skills, so that we can step into the next part of his journey. If you think you can help, please reach out to me, he’s an absolute genius, a real asset and you won’t regret it. If you don’t believe me, ask anyone who’s ever met him. Let’s trailblaze together! #AutismAtWork #Disability #TeamworkMakesTheDreamWork #MakingItHappen #DifferentNotLess #EmbracingTheDifference #WalkingTheTalk #MentalHealthMatters #SeeingTheValue #EmbracingNeurodiversity #ThinkingDifferently Alt text Below is a collection of photos from the day, put together in a video.
That’s awesome - well done to you both…
