“Hi, I’m Anne, Manager of Daltons in Lisburn. The sandwich bar is located on Market Square and is very busy serving customers for sit in and take out.

We have a great team and have employed several people brought to us by Stepping Stones NI over the years. We are delighted with the employees that have come to us. Stepping Stones NI support staff have been a great support to us. They have helped us find loyal and talented employees.
