Social enterprise cafés create jobs in Northern Ireland

A social enterprise in Northern Ireland is creating 20 jobs for people with disabilities and long-term health conditions at two new cafés.

The Irish News reports that earlier this month Ulster Supported Employment Ltd (Usel) opened the Ability at the Drawbridge Café, in Ballymena’s Ecos Centre. The move follows the organisation’s opening last month of the Ability Café, at the new acute mental health inpatient centre in Belfast City Hospital.

Usel, which works in partnership with 150 organisations to get people back into employment, operates training programmes to help people with disabilities to gain qualifications and skills.
