When Roberta joined Fair Shot, she stepped up to transform her career prospects. On October 11th, she’s taking on an entirely new challenge - running 13.1 miles in the OYSHO Oysho Royal Parks Half Marathon to support our 5th Birthday Campaign! 🏃‍♀️✨

As a Fair Shot graduate, Roberta knows firsthand how life-changing access to employment, structured training, and real-world experience can be. Her family shared how the programme “has had an amazing impact.“

Now, she’s taking on her very first half marathon to ensure future young adults with learning disabilities get that same opportunity.

We are aiming to raise £100,000 for our 5th Birthday to fund the next 5 years of training, employment support, and systemic change for young adults with learning disabilities.

Every pound raised brings another young adult into paid, meaningful work.

We are changing this reality, but we need your help. Through our hospitality training model and supported internships, we equip young adults with learning disabilities with the skills, confidence, and real-world experience needed to build long-term, meaningful careers.

The proof is in the impact:

92% of our learners become job-ready every year.
90% of our placed graduates are with their original employer.
£3.22–£9.35 of social and economic value is generated for every £1 invested in supported internship programs.

Graduating from a program like Fair Shot is a milestone, and for Zaki, it was nothing short of transformative. “It felt amazing,” he recalls. “It felt like I was all grown up, like I could move on and do anything! Like I was in charge of my life, the boss of my own destiny.” He’s been thriving in a job ever since.

As our graduate George puts it: “Fair Shot is single-handedly responsible for allowing me to come out of my shell and share my ideas with the world.”

As we enter our next phase of growth, we want to scale up our reach through new toolkits, consultancy, and employer training so that if someone with a learning disability wants to work, they can. But we can’t do it alone.

Meet Chloe, one of our resident creative powerhouses! We handed her a Polaroid camera here’s what made her final cut. 📸✨

Witty, quick-witted, and genuinely hard-working, Chloe handles every shift with total ease. She mastered every floor station here at Fair Shot from day one, taking her training in stride and effortlessly inventing her own clever hacks to keep things flowing.

She fit right in instantly, bringing a fun, lively energy that the team absolutely adores. (Plus, being our South London gal, she undeniably brings the best fidget toys to work!)

Her favorite parts of working at the café? Meeting new faces, collaborating with the team, sharing hilarious off-peak chats when things quiet down, and creating endless laughs.

Swipe through to see the café through Chloe’s eyes! (Spoiler: no one managed to dodge her camera). 🎞️👇

5 YEARS OF FAIR SHOT! 🎂✨

We are still floating on a cloud after celebrating our 5th birthday! 🥹

Seeing our cafe filled with so much joy, laughter, and community reminded us exactly why we started this journey.

One of the most special moments of the day? The incredible birthday cake baked by one of our 2026 graduates Lia & our chef Lauren! 🎂🍰

It was shared and devoured by our original OG graduates from year one - the very first group of young adults with learning disabilities who walked through our doors. Having them back home where it all began, celebrating how far everyone has come, was absolute pure joy. ❤️

Seeing the real, lasting impact of our community makes us even more determined for the future. We’ve officially raised nearly £18k so far, but we aren’t stopping there - our goal is £100k! 🚀

Reaching £100k will allow us to continue breaking down barriers, transforming lives, and proving that with the right support, everyone deserves a fair shot at a meaningful career.

Thank you to every single person who bought a coffee, donated, shared a post, or came to celebrate with us. Here’s to the last 5 years—and to building an even brighter, more inclusive future together! 🥂✨

To mark Fair Shot’s 5th birthday this week, we are raising £100,000 to power our next phase of growth and extend our reach to even more young adults.

Together, we can ensure that every young person with a learning disability who wants to work has the opportunity to do so.

“Two years ago, it felt like if I didn’t become employable I was doomed. From the beginning, it was a difficult start but it was worth it because I have learnt so much independence throughout my journey.”

Whether he’s delivering attentive service, keeping the cafe spotless, or perfecting his latte art, Kian is remarkably proactive. He’s mastered balancing chatting with customers, fulfilling orders, and staying ahead of the work - all while being a top-tier team player. Plus, his skills speak for themselves: like the time he sold over £70 worth of pastries in a single order AND made sure they signed up to our points with purpose loyalty programme! 🥐✨

Kian is bright, funny, and deeply knowledgeable - his growth has been an absolute joy to watch. A natural people-person, he truly shines in customer service - his quick, relatable sense of humor brings instant warmth to everyone he meets. (Our team especially love his periodic, perfectly timed Mr. Krabs quotes! 🦀)

Beyond the cafe, Kian’s passion and talents run deep. He’s a total whiz with computers, loves Tron and SpongeBob, relaxes to music, and enjoys a good hot cross bun. He’s also a serious gaming talent - he even made it to the quarter-finals of a UK-wide Tetris competition! 🕹️🧱

Kian, we are so proud of your independence, hard work, and unique personality. Here’s to your next exciting chapter!

Help us empower more young adults like Kian. Your support provides hands-on training, fosters independence, and opens doors to meaningful careers.
