Roman’s journey is proof of what’s possible when potential meets the right person, in the right place, at the right time - and why Rise Up is challenging us all to be five to ten percent better.
After seven years out of work, Andy didn’t just feel unemployed, he felt stuck. His confidence was at rock bottom, motivation was gone, and he was spending the majority of his days staring at four walls. He knew something had to change but taking that first step felt massive.
That changed when Andy joined the Restart Scheme in late 2024 and met his Employment Advisor, Kelsie.
From fresh qualifications to his first full-time job, Kyran didn’t waste a single day. With help from the Restart Scheme, he sharpened his CV, boosted his confidence, and landed a Warehouse Operative role at Lidl. Now, he’s back on track, earning, saving for his future, and building a career.
