The Business with Matt Treviss Wednesday 31 May - Craig Brown from Trojan Mailing

Trojan is a unique business that focuses on providing a rehabilitative environment for individuals dealing with mental health issues or learning disabilities.

They offer bespoke work-based training placements, helping trainees recognize their self-worth and achievements. Unlike other services, Trojan does not charge for their training, relying solely on commercial work to fund their social purpose.

As a social enterprise, all profits are reinvested back into the business to ensure the continuation of their training programs.

Hampshire Press and Trojan Mailing, in partnership with FNTC Training, offer work-based training opportunities and apprenticeships for individuals with learning difficulties and mental health problems.

The organization has a structured hierarchy with team leaders and floor managers comprising the trainees, providing them with a sense of responsibility and the ability to take direction.

While trainees handle tasks that would normally be done by machines, larger jobs are managed by full-time employees. Qualified staff oversee the process to ensure high-quality work and customer satisfaction.

Trojan encourages visits from interested individuals without the need for an appointment. By using their services, customers receive excellent service while supporting an award-winning social enterprise that benefits the local community.
