Comments from students
"I don 't know what I would have done if I hadn't come here" P.C.
"I really enjoy learning without worrying when I make a mistake. At school I was
petrified to make a mistake" D.W.
"I was going round in circles and when the Job Centre told me about Building 4
Hope. l applied and everyone there really helped and supported me. They really
believed in me and had faith in me. I grew in confidence and was so pleased
with my first ever qualification. I got 86%. 1 got more qualifications an(1 now had
something to put on my C.V. They really helped me and I will always remember
them." M.T.
"l am now in Full Time employment and get paid well. l am happy and can now
enjoy life. Before I was really down as I did not see any future for me. It was so
much better than school. I hated going to school and felt under pressure and
struggled in all lessons. When I left school I tried college but I struggled there
too and ended up dropping out because I couldn't get on the right course
because I had no school qualifications. I cannot thank Building 4 Hope enough.
It changed my life. Everyone believed in me and I felt safe. I knew I could do the
work here. Everyone was patient and encouraged me. I now have a full time job
and they still encourage me and I can always ask for advice. I don't know what
would have happened if I hadn't Bone there. I was in a bad place and could see
no way out. When the Job Centre told me about Building 4 Hope I was so glad
they did. They were right because 8uilding 4 Hope understood me and helped
me to do well."T.P.
Comment from a Sin
le Parent My Son had a poor experience at school and
hated college. I began to see a change in him when he started at Building 4
Hope. He is much more confident and l am so thankful to everyone at Building 4
Hope. He was on a bad route before.
