Kisharon Langdon supports children and adults with learning disabilities and autistic people to build skills, confidence, and independence. Our social enterprises provide a safe, inclusive environment where individuals gain real work experience and develop the skills needed for future employment.
Thanks to support from The Ian Karten Charitable Trust, we have introduced an interactive whiteboard in our Social Enterprise Hub, where participants create products to be sold to the public, both online and in Kisharon Langdon’s Equal Gift and Homeware Store, as well as fulfilling orders for local charities and food banks. The interactive whiteboard plays a key role in supporting these activities and has quickly become a vital learning tool for the 36 people who attend up to 4.5 days a week.
Participants use the board to support everyday tasks such as stocktaking, calculating orders, and tracking progress. It helps build numeracy, teamwork, and leadership skills, while boosting confidence through visual, hands-on learning. Features such as colour coding, shared screens, and group email drafting encourage collaboration and engagement.
The board is also used for presentations, Zoom sessions, and group discussions, allowing everyone to participate fully. From signing in at the start of the day to researching products and reviewing feedback, it supports learning at every stage.
This interactive tool is helping participants develop essential skills and move closer to meaningful employment.
