Huge thanks to Laura (Lidl Area Manager) and Graham (Lidl Navan Store Manager) for hosting our LMETB/Down Syndrome Louth Meath Branch Work Ready Programme Customer Service Field Trip 🙌
Our students had a fantastic learning experience, gaining real insights into what great customer care looks like from both Laura and Graham. We were especially proud to hear from our very own branch member Paul, who shared all about the brilliant work he does during his 2.5-hour shifts at Lidl Navan 💪
We were also delighted to have Cara Morgan, Employment Support Specialist, join us. Cara is working closely with LMETB and supporting our adult members as they explore exciting pathways into paid employment through the National DSI Employment Support Programme.
A big shoutout as well to LMETB Navan for delivering such an incredible year-long Work Ready Programme for our members 👏✨
