Milkshake, yum! 🐄 Our Carlton Road residents recently paid a visit to Milk on the Hills.
It's rare that we get to meet the cows that give us our milk, but that's what our residents did.
Each of them bought a bottle of flavoured milk, choosing their favourite flavours.
Delish! 🐮

Our Employment Team supports autistic individuals across the East Midlands to find jobs, voluntary work, access courses and more.
Sometimes, it's all about taking that first step.
We're supporting a individual who would like to take their first step into the world of work, and due to their needs and communication style, is looking for a remote volunteering opportunity.
This is someone who:
⭐ Has a level 2 in Business Administration
⭐ Is very comfortable with using technology
⭐ Able to use the internet
This would be 1-2 hours per week and they would require written communication, such as via email, WhatsApp or similar.
If you think you know of a suitable opportunity, please get in touch with our team at employment@aem.org.uk.
