Prior to joining the Big Happiness Project and getting involved with Evolve, Jane* had been suffering from severe depression, low self-esteem, and struggling with anxiety.
Being aged 40 and having no work experience due to life complications and a traumatic background, she has found it difficult to find employment and needed help and advice on where to start. Showcasing a lot of enthusiasm and determination, Jane came to us with a desire to learn new skills, but most importantly a wish to be financially independent and able to provide support to her daughter.
Regarding her experience with the Big Happiness Project and Evolve, Jane commented:
“I would like to say that Project Happiness is amazing and I’ve really enjoyed discovering about myself and my brain. I think Jules makes this course very special and I know I would not be moving on with my life as I am without you!”
We are delighted to say that due to everyone’s effort and hard work, Jane is now doing a course at South Staffordshire College as a part of her career development.
