Yellow Submarine supports people with learning disabilities and autism through training, work experience and inclusive community programmes, helping to build social skills, confidence and independence, while also supporting families and carers with respite.

The visit began with a demonstration of the CNC machine, where the group explored different cutters and materials used in joinery. Jonathan Watts, Joinery Director, then led a tour of the workshop, explaining the function of each machine, showcasing current projects and finishing in the spray room.

The trainees were highly engaged throughout and asked plenty of questions. The morning concluded with a delicious lunch purchased from the Yellow Submarine café.

As one of the charities we work closely with, it is great to be able to open our doors and support the trainees. Hopefully we have some inspired some future joiners!
