FST has a growing number of social enterprises providing professional services including MOT, car servicing and repairs, catering and food service and conference facilities. These businesses are based on FST’s model of delivery – SMaRT® (Socially Minded and Responsible Trading). All our enterprises engage with people traditionally excluded from working life because of mental health conditions, learning disabilities, drug or alcohol and other disadvantages.
FST reinvest all income generated by our social enterprises to create further opportunities and (wherever possible) sustainable employment opportunities for those from disadvantage backgrounds to enable them to take the first steps back into employment.
