During their recent training trip to Cape Town, Welcome and Khaya had the opportunity to visit two enterprises that create work for disabled people, I love Coffee and Shonaquip, to talk to some of the people behind the initiatives. First meeting Jessica and Mike at I Love Coffee, they learnt about the coffee shop’s mission to train and employ young hearing- disabled baristas while breaking down communication barriers through their unique sign language menu.
At Shonaquip, Welcome and Khaya met employee, Sarah, who gave them a tour of the company’s headquarters, introducing them to many of the disabled staff working behind the scenes to provide clients with the entity’s offering of specialized disability services.
