this give adults the skills they need for adult like, SAAS are looking to take this furthur after the 12 month course with there upcoming community cafe, where adults will get the opportunity to be employed by the charity and develop new skills and qualifications.
The community cafe sounds like an excellent idea.
Being in a cafe is a very marketable skill.

The cafe model has worked well with people with developmental differences and mental distress.
