Supporting Young Talent: Lexie’s Work Experience at Taunton

We’re delighted to welcome Lexie, who is currently completing work experience at our Taunton Store. Lexie has a real passion for food and dreams of opening her own café one day, so is spending time with us to gain hands-on experience.

Beyond her time in-store, Lexie showcases her culinary skills through her website, Lexie Cooks, where she shares delicious recipes and food inspiration. If you are unable to visit a Warrens store, why not have a go at making your own sausage rolls using Lexie’s village hall recipe!

Lexie is working two lunchtime shifts a week, gaining hands-on experience in retail by serving customers, stocking shelves, and operating the till. It’s been especially interesting for her to see how our tills operate, giving her a deeper understanding of customer service and our systems.

Her placement wouldn’t be possible without the amazing support of our team at Taunton and Young Somerset, a youth and community support charity, who provide support to young people and their families, helping them develop skills suited to their ambitions.

If you’re in the area, pop into our Taunton store to say hello to Lexie and our team! We are committed to supporting our local communities and offering opportunities to all. If you would like to know more, please get in touch with us through our contact form.
