EMPLOYABILITY ORKNEY

Employability Orkney is a registered charity that was established in 2005 to help provide a range of sustainable supported employment, training, and volunteering opportunities for those with a barrier to gaining employment. This broad remit includes individuals with a learning disability, physical disability, mental health needs, alcohol/substance misuse needs, ex-offenders,

care leavers, long-term unemployed and anyone who experiences a disadvantage in entering the labour market. At Employability Orkney we are committed to giving individuals with a disadvantage to gaining employment the opportunity to participate in a supportive and inclusive work environment, free from stigma and discrimination. Everyone is valued for their abilities and are supported and encouraged to participate in running our busy shop. Employability Orkney supports a range of volunteer skill development placements and supported employee positions. RESTART ORKNEY

Restart Orkney is a well-established and successful social enterprise which provides supported employment and skill development for adults and young people with a barrier to maintaining employment. Restart Orkney sells good quality second-hand furniture and household items to the general public at affordable prices but also helps to provide furniture and white goods to our local council to help individuals who are struggling to move in to and furnish their own property. Everything for sale at Restart Orkney has been kindly donated by the Orkney community. One of our aims at Restart Orkney is to re-use and recycle household items with the aim of reducing waste. We divert huge amounts from incineration and landfill every year. Our skilled team maximise this aim by carrying out small repairs, PAT testing all electrical items and ensuring all items are clean and in good working order before going on sale. THINGS YOU WILL BE ABLE TO FIND INCLUDE:

Furniture including sofas, beds, wardrobes, chests of drawers, tables and chairs
White goods and electrical items i.e., TV’s, lamps etc – (Everything is PAT tested before going on sale)
Toys, Books, DVDs, CD's and Vinyl
Mirrors and Pictures
Collectables, China, Glassware and much, much more
