The Karten Centre at St John’s College is a hub of activity helping our learners develop vital employability skills. From here, we run our social enterprise Inkusion of learner’s artwork transformed into prints, postcards, mugs and so much more!
Student A has been a student at St. John’s for three years. During the current academic year, she joined our Karten Centre Printshop and has become well-versed in the basic workflows and processes of design.
Recently, Student A played a key role in printing and pressing uniforms for one of our partners, The Real Junk Food Project where she is undertaking a work placement. As a gesture of goodwill, Inklusion offered to replenish their old uniforms, something that Student A was highly involved with.
With funding for our new Oki transfer printer from the Ian Karten Trust, we have been enabled to print transfer images of The Real Junk Food Project’s logo. Student A assisted in preparing the transfer images, printing them on the Oki transfer printer, and then heat pressing adhesive patches to brand the logo onto the old uniforms.
The refreshed uniforms were presented to our partners last year. Since then, Student A has been using her newly prepared uniforms during her weekly placement at The Real Junk Food Project.
