Sixth Form student Sonali is currently undergoing a work experience placement at local Waitrose in Worcester, where she is learning all about customer service, multi-tasking and being part of a team!

Sonali is getting involved in lots of different roles, from operating the tills, stacking shelves and working on an independent project about sustainability where she is looking at how to make Waitrose a more eco friendly place as well as making customers more aware of what Waitrose are already doing for the environment. 

She has already learn more about food products and where these are placed within the store, meaning that she is able to shop independently – a great skills for life after NCW!

She said: “I’m looking forward to learning new things whilst undergoing my work placement and becoming more independent. I’m hoping to carry forward my sustainability project as the environment is something I’m passionate about, and I believe I could help other businesses in the future.”
