Hatch Programme Work Placement

“Community Foundation allowed me to gain valuable skills that are a necessity for a person to have. My placement enabled me to grow as a person and become a better version of myself. I also learnt skills that school doesn’t teach, such as talking to people over the phone confidently. The environment is warm and welcoming and is the perfect place to develop as a young individual.“

Brooke Newall

Work Placement/Trainee

"I found Community Foundation through a traineeship- I completed my work experience element through Community Foundation for 3 months. All the staff are lovely. Community Foundation helped me grow in confidence with answering telephone calls and greeting visitors. Thank you, Community Foundation.

Hassan Nadeem

Work Placement Student/Trainee

“I first learned about Community Foundation through my traineeship at Protocol. What motivated me to be a part of Community Foundation was that I have always aspired for be an integral aspect of a company/organisation. I have yet to complete my Hatch programme at KFC, where I hope my confidence and communication skills will be improved. One of my most memorable experiences at Community Foundation was the Hatch modules where I got to communicate and work as a team with people my age.“

Hanifah Saleh

Hatch Programme Work Placement

“I found Community Foundation’s Hatch programme via a job site.
I saw it as a great opportunity to add experience to my CV and to learn more about employment.
Hatch was a nice experience as I’ve never done admin work before.  I gained skills and knowledge needed when in an interview and what a good CV looks like. I liked the modules and pizza"

I attended the Hatch Programme, and my experience was good because I had learnt a few skills.
I have gained confidence and also new skills I need to know in a job. I know how to make  a CV. I enjoyed the whole thing because it wasn’t boring, we had fun activities and it was fun."
