CatholicCare Tasmania - 26Ten Grant

CatholicCare Tasmania's story

With their 26Ten Workplace Grant, CatholicCare Tasmania employed an Adult Literacy Trainer to work with their Out of Home Care team. This provided their employees with the opportunity to improve their literacy and numeracy skills through a program that was designed specifically for them, and delivered in collaboration with Work & Training.

Forager Food Co. - Working with plain English

"This project has allowed [our staff] to take on a bigger role within the business ... and it's really given them more confidence in what they're doing, knowing they can work it out for themselves."

Lucy's story

"Some of the guys weren't super keen to use iPads ... but when they saw how it was going to make their jobs easier, and that it wasn't as hard as what they thought it might be, they were pretty keen to learn some new skills."

Acknowledgement of Country

26Ten recognises the deep histories and cultures of the Aboriginal people of Lutruwita/Tasmania, the land’s first storytellers. We acknowledge Tasmanian Aboriginal people as the traditional and continuing custodians of the land, waters and sky. We pay respect to the Elders, past and present, who hold the memories, traditions, culture and knowledge of Country. We extend our respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, whose Countries were never ceded.
