Restart Scheme making a difference

Those on PET-Xi’s Restart Scheme are given support to improve their CVs, refine their interview techniques, as well as helping them understand their skills and interests to find jobs that are most suitable for each individual.

Fleur Sexton, CEO and Co-Founder of PET-Xi, said: “In terms of securing future jobs for participants, the Restart Scheme in Leamington is one of the most successful, and it was great to have Cllr Wilkins visit the office to see for himself all the work we’re doing.

“I think PET-Xi’s attention to detail when it comes to working with each person one-on-one, especially when it comes to understanding their skills, is a big part of that.

“For example, those who struggle with their maths can take part in the Multiply Programme, and its partnership with WCG means participants can be referred to their courses too.

“And having the office here at the college makes a real difference as many of our participants can access it far more easily.”
