Very disappointing that a business with the motto "with the community for the community " made the uneducated decision to terminate the volunteer employ of one of their most enthusiastic employees who has an intellectual disability because a fellow volunteer "couldn't handle it" and decided that Becca "shouldn't even be there" I find that absolutely abhorrent and, although a volunteer, it should be reported to the employment relations authority. The volunteer that "cannot handle" working with a fellow volunteer should have been given the option to leave if she had a problem. I note on your website that you liaise with Rodney Adult mental health, how ironic! Shame on you for such nasty behaviour towards an enthusiastic young woman who wants to serve...
