WHAT PEOPLE SAY

Sarah, Bakisa and Victoria, London (STAR into Work, Employability, Well-being Bespoke Work Placement)

You are an amazing lady that has done an amazing job in our lives. We are happy to still hold your acquaintance.

Marianna S. (Volunteer Programme)

Thanks to ESS Volunteer Programme I gained a sense of purpose and accomplishment while working with students and my lovely team. I also had the opportunity to learn new skills and gain knowledge and be mentored myself by the Directors. This experience has highlighted my character, passion and determination.

Zainab M. (Work Placement Student)

The placement itself was such a great experience for me as it gave the opportunity to get a real insight into media marketing and content creation which I hope to apply to as my future career; this included learning how to create a website and the ultimate goal of being a good advertorial. I was also given the opportunity to be involved in a digital workshop with different responsibilities within the community, providing practical and social support for elderly people during the pandemic.

"I am happy that I have took part to this course as my English did improve. I am very happy to take part to the next level of the course to improve my language skills in all aspects."
