Education was a struggle for Corey during his teenage years and this resulted in being removed from mainstream schooling. During this difficult period for Cory, he was in and out of prison for various reasons and lacked the key life skills that are gained during schooling. Looking to turn his life around and end the cycle of prison sentences, Corey completed a business course during his term to give himself the best possible chance of success on the outside.
Now based in Sheffield, Corey had dreams of turning his life around by starting his own business, however, he lacked the required customer service skills to kickstart this. After being released in April 2023, Corey began his search for full-time employment and looked to start the foundations of his business ideas.
“Given Corey previously struggled in a formal learning environment, it has been amazing to see how much he has progressed this, Summer. He has gained new skills and grown in confidence over the five weeks. He has always had drive to succeed, and it has been great supporting Corey in making positive progress and overcoming the barriers faced after his release from prison.”
