Make Trax – Case Study with Sam

Updated: 01/04/2025

Sam is 24 year old Brighton resident who has been working with Make Trax for a year, he finished his A levels in 2020 and has since provided some free-lance work in editing.

He joined Make Trax to have 1:1 support with moving into work as he was feeling isolated and was at a crossroads of choosing which career path he would follow, yet feeling the pressure of moving into employment asap.

Upon meeting he wanted to move into either a Plumbing or Media Apprenticeship. As we worked together looking at short and long term aspirations, Sam has established his passion for working within the Production Sector, which was affirmed due to a wonderful opportunity of work experience at Middlechild.

As part of all the work Sam has done through the Make Trax programme, the Middlechild connection has been transformative for him and has even lead to occasional paid work.

 

 Sam’s thoughts on Make Trax

  1. The consistency of the Make Trax programme is really nice, the search for work and my future felt much more stable because of this.
  2. The connections that Make Trax has is also great, such as the connections to Middlechild specifically for me, or the Gatwick and pier people. Also, with access to stuff for mental health and such makes it feel very supportive.
  3. Massive benefit as well is that it is 1 to 1 support with someone who genuinely cares about you and your future.
  4. The appointments being an hour long is very nice as it feels like a very productive hour that you can use to snowball into the rest of the day/week.
