Education Unit provides members with support in rejoining the workforce
and/or furthering their education. |
WORK ORDERED DAY
When a member joins
Canefields Clubhouse he/she can choose a unit that
each member would like to work in. However there is always
the choice available to work for another unit at any time.
Each unit has a
leader who is responsible for ensuring that members who wish to be
involved in the unit have the opportunity to access those activities
which interest them. Work in each unit is a shared experience with
staff and members working together to perform all tasks including
maintenance and cleaning.
