Come and say hello!

Having the additional retail space available has enabled us to extend our work experience to a greater number of clients and also allows us to tailor our opportunities to the individual interest and needs of the young people we support. Many of our clients work across both retail sites and this also gives them the opportunity to transfer the skills learnt in one setting to another, which is an incredibly valuable but notoriously difficult skill to master.

There is a small seating area that patrons are welcome to use for products that have been purchased instore and our young people love welcoming and interacting with our lovely customers.

If you haven’t visited The Happy Snacker yet, do please pop in and have browse and say hello.  We look forward to welcoming you into our new venture and so appreciate your support and patience whist our young people continue to develop their skills and experience on the path to paid employment.
