Step and Stone
Based in South Bristol, Step and Stone is an Into Work bakery working alongside adults with learning differences to develop work skills and offer support into paid employment.
Step and Stone develops their trainees' career confidence through skills training and purposeful work experience in their artisan bakery. Trainees bake award-winning produce while accessing opportunities for community building and confronting social isolation in the friendly bakery days and at regular team-wide socials. Once a trainee is Work Ready, Step and Stone sources appropriate and meaningful work by approaching potential employers to offer Disability Confidence training and assistance with reasonable adjustments. To support a trainee's transition into work, Step and Stone provides travel training and job coaching for as long as the individual needs.
