Lewis joined Greenbank College in September 2022 at the age of 18. He began his studies on a Level 1 course and, through hard work and determination, progressed to a Level 2 qualification in Customer Service. During his time at college, Lewis made a significant impact both academically and within the student community. He was elected by his peers to serve as Student President. Lewis led the student council and ensured every student’s voice was heard and valued. As part of his course, Lewis completed a work experience placement at the Wheelbarrow Café.
Throughout the placement, he developed his confidence, independence, and communication skills—and impressed the team so much that he was offered part-time employment. Now 21 years old, Lewis is a committed and valued member of the Wheelbarrow Café team. His journey is a fantastic example of personal growth, leadership, and the power of inclusive opportunities.
