Target Devon CIC

Here at Target Devon, we advocate and encourage inclusivity for all. We recognise each person’s individual strengths and talents while also providing support for their differences and needs. Established in 2022 as a non-profit community interest company, we can offer paid employment in retail, hospitality, woodwork, and creative up-cycling through Target Devon and our partner CIC’s Outcasts & The Wee Snug Cafe.

We strongly believe that with the right support and understanding we can help individuals gain confidence and skills through various roles within our organisations. Our aim is to give them practical skills, knowledge, and confidence to be able to sustain mainstream employment with limited reasonable adjustments. We employ Job Coaches to aide and support individuals to learn and succeed in their chosen role. Bespoke reasonable adjustments are made within each job role as we recognise everyone learns differently.

Many suffer from the barriers imposed by societal norms, causing social exclusion and inequality. Some might not be able to communicate their exclussion and inequality. Some might not be able to communicate their needs or feelings and may struggle with impairing and harmful behaviours that impact their safety and well-being in everyday life. Understanding and embracing neurodiversity in communities, schools, healthcare settings, and workplaces can improve inclusivity for all people.
