Rae started on the Yep! project in January and during that time, she has been working 1:1 with her CSW Group Yep! Adviser, exploring options for returning to education.  They have visited several local education providers, arranging a place to start in September.

Rae has also benefited from the collaborative delivery within the project, meaning that whilst she continued to gain 1:1 support from CSW Group, she has also attended the PLUSS ME course through Yep! partners PLUSS.

Rae tells us the difference working with CSW Group has made to her:

‘You’ve finally found me an educational facility that makes me want to give education another shot and that’s down to you.’

And the impact of being able to additionally link in with the PLUSS ME course:

‘You’ve helped my confidence in leaving the home. I’m starting to learn to use public transport, which I’ve done on my own now, which is a giant improvement in me getting out of the house. It’s something I couldn’t see myself doing a couple of years ago.’

We are so proud of Rae and the steps she has taken forward since being on the project and we look forward to seeing her progress back into education.
