Ross’s
Story

Before joining YES, Ross felt lost and unsure of his next steps. He was constantly rejected by businesses and felt like he wasn’t given a chance, and it really knocked his confidence. Ross started working with Elisha, who guided and helped him understand what options were available and supported him in updating his CV alongside looking at skills building to build is confidence. ‘I feel so more confident and have a better understanding of my next steps.

Elisha supported Ross in securing a role as a gardening assistant, which is a role he felt really passionate about. He has been with YES for a while and was very particular about what he wanted to do but he has persevered and has finally got his dream job.

‘I would tell all young people to go for it, it gives you more guidance and helps you understand your next steps.’
