Campaign idea: Abbie walks to her paid café shifts
Abbie struggled to complete daily tasks outside her home. Now she walks alone to her paid shifts at a café.
This story
Living with her parents and socially isolated, 18-year-old Abbie struggled to complete daily tasks outside the house because of her autism diagnosis. With support from an employment worker who met her at a local café, she developed a plan to build her skills and took up a part-time volunteering role there. She has since completed coffee-making training and now works two days a week in a paid job, walking to her shifts on her own.
What your brand could do
Kit Abbie out for her walk to work and provide the workwear for her shifts at the café.
