The Olive Tree Cafe is one of 3 projects run by The Recovery Tree Charity the aim of which is to preserve and protect the good mental health of people by providing positive, work-related opportunities in a cafe open to the public, in order to take them a step nearer to the world of work. We offer each person a clear and structured induction programme over the initial weeks/months of their time with us and, when appropriate, this is followed with opportunities to participate in a variety of certificated training courses that are recognized and valued in the industry. The grant funding will cover the costs of preparation and delivery of two Level 2 Cookery Skills courses which are offered to volunteers who have spent some time in working as part of the team, started to gain in confidence, knowledge and understanding of the day-to-day activities necessary for the efficient running of the cafe. Developed by our Manager and registered at Level 2 with the Open College Network, the course contributes to development of confidence, pride and self-esteem of participants.
