I met Gez when I was inside at HMP Peterborough. Inside I was studying for my Hospitality certificate which would allow me to get a job outside prison. In September 2017 Gez came to speak with me about an opportunity in his hotel in Thetford where I could get experience in the hospitality sector and a flat where to stay. Those 2 things were very important for my release as I could have the chance to have a job and a place to stay after my release. In November 2017, after my release I could start with him which helped me to gain more experience in the sector and with the experience I gained in his hotel, I managed to get a job in one of the museums in London and start fresh a new life. Today, I have to say that without his help, I don't know where I could be, as it is very difficult to find a job, especially in our circumstances. Now, I am working in a HR Department and I am studying for the qualification within a charity, so my life turns around just because someone gave me the chance to do so after my release.
