Purple Chicken A hospitality training program/cafe for young adults with disabilities

10/05/2026

Our cafe offers a supportive environment where adults can build confidence, practical hospitality skills, social connection, and everyday living skills at their own pace. From customer service and barista training to cooking, shopping, money handling, and creating recipes they can use at home, every day is focused on enjoying the process and being comfortable to try new things.

Places are filling fast, so if you or someone you know may benefit from joining our program, we’d love to hear from you.

Rhys was eager to make his family favourite Bara Brith loaf today 🍞

This delicious fruit loaf is perfect cold, but next level toasted with butter 😍

It was so popular there are only a couple of slices left, so we’ll definitely be asking him to make it again soon.

Today’s zucchini slice was made from scratch by Tom as part of building recipes he can confidently make at home for himself. 🥒🧀

He did a serious job preparing, baking and serving this must-try lunch favourite… and it won’t last long!

Kirstin is expanding her food knowledge and building a collection of recipes she can confidently recreate at home.

Today it was these gorgeous coconut cakes with rich chocolate ganache.

Great to see her taking on new and unfamiliar recipes and backing herself in the process.

What will she make next… 👀

Ayisha has been putting in some serious work perfecting her chocolate making skills 🍫

Careful measuring, patience, and a real focus on getting each step just right — and it’s paying off. These delicious treats will be available in the cafe soon…

And if you’re lucky, you might even score a sneaky one with your coffee 😉☕

On Friday, Ian had the pizza station all set up and ready to go. Ingredients organised, space prepared, and everything in place so the team could jump straight in.

Great planning, initiative. Skills like this build confidence and independence — both here and at home.

Shania has so much pride in what she does, and it shows in every step of her learning

She was incredibly eager to complete her safe food handling certificate—and she did it! A great achievement that reflects her determination and willingness to learn.

These are the kinds of skills that go beyond the cafe. Understanding safe food handling supports her independence and confidence when preparing meals at home, building real-life skills for everyday living.

Last week, Georgia and Harry stepped onto the big stage at the APA Mega Nationals… and walked away with a medal each 🏅

An incredible achievement and a true reflection of their commitment, discipline, and hard work.

Seeing their success not just in the cafe, but in their personal passions, is exactly why we do what we do. It’s about building confidence, independence, and supporting people to chase goals that matter to them — whatever that looks like.

We couldn’t be prouder.
