INVESTING IN SKILLS: IMPROVING LIVES

AMSOL has partnered with Cape Mental Health and Training Workshops Unlimited to train 10 unemployed candidates on the South African Federation for Mental Health Model. The training includes Life Skills, Work Skills, Supported Employment and developing an ‘Easy to Read’ concept for Persons with Intellectual Disability.

AMSOL’s HR Executive Nceba Mfini was a guest speaker at their annual customer appreciation event in October which celebrated the talents and abilities of those living with intellectual disability, and AMSOL was presented with an award for their support.
