Access to Industry students proved there are positive opportunities to be gained after moving on from care, prison, substance use and homelessness, when they were visited by Jonathan Shaw MP, Minister for Disabilities on Friday 25 September 2009 in Edinburgh.

The Minister met with staff and Transition students who participate in a daily structure of learning to overcome addiction issues and talked to a group of vulnerable women on the Passport programme who were attending a Hair and Beauty vocational training course delivered in partnership with Jewel and Esk College.
