Who we are

We’re a passionate team of specialists, and trainees. We run vocational training centres and a range of social businesses, such as coffee shops in Bangkok for young adults (some of whom are neurodivergent) to gain the skills they need to access a fulfilling career. Our specialists work in the wider community to support children and young adults. Our ultimate aim is to help all people lead purposeful, dignified lives.

What we do

Since we started in 2016, our mission to give our trainees a great future has inspired businesses, schools, organisations, and individuals across Thailand to get involved. We’ve grown so much it’s hard to cover everything, but here is what we do in a (large) nutshell:

Run UK-accredited vocational training centres in central Bangkok and Phuket for young adults. Many of our trainees have learning differences, but we welcome anyone who fits our admission criteria.

Work with schools to help them create bespoke educational plans for their learners.

Run a number of coffee shops, some of which are attached to our vocational training centres. The coffee shops serve as a safe space for our trainees to apply their new-found work skills. We serve wholesome, allergen-free food and pride ourselves on our coffee.

Run a Business Service Centre that allows companies to outsource digital and admin work for our trainees and graduates to complete on-site at our centre, which in turn offers them training and employment opportunities.

Build links with businesses and other organisations to arrange employment for our trainees once they’ve completed our vocational programme. 100% of our graduates are in employment with amazing partners doing Thailand proud.
