All of the young people taking part in baking sessions have severe autism, yet have overcome challenges to be able to take part in training sessions with the aim that they will one day assist Dylan and his team in baking products to sell. Currently they practice baking in taster sessions each week and share their bakes with other young people and staff in their homes.
