Why the Risers Programme raises our spirits
“I left Tbilisi, Republic of Georgia after studying at a high school for 2 years. I could not go back home to Iran because of my sexual orientation and my conversion to another religion.”
“I joined the amazing Breadwinner’s family and went through their Risers’ programme for two months. I had the chance to meet new people and make new friends and also gain my first work experience in Britain.
After completing the Risers’ programme, I feel more confident with interacting with local people and gained a lot of transferable skills. My mentor of course, had a very important role in these two months, she helped me with my future plans and encouraged me to experiment new things and go further in my life!”
“I am now a Business level three student at WKC and planning to set-up my own business aimed at elimination of homelessness in the United Kingdom and to take a step towards the betterment of the world we live in.”
