Do you dream of having a job but feel like it's impossible?
Cameron wanted a practical job where he could stay active and be part of a team.
Chained Events needed a reliable barback who could keep the drinks flowing at venues across Manchester.
Now everyone's got what they wanted...
..and Cameron's working at his second major music event this summer; Live From Wythenshawe Park!
Cameron's really enjoying his job. With Zabeena to help him prepare for the weekend, keep him motivated and build his confidence on the job, he's learnt that he can be responsible and professional even in a busy working environment.
"I'd definitely recommend Persona Employment Pathways because they are supportive, understanding and genuinely want to help people succeed", he says.

alt text: reel of video clips and photos. An empty festival stage and people arriving at the grounds, Cameron walking to work at the bar, taking a break by walking around the festival and back at work measuring drink into cups, smashing ice and working with team members. The final two images show Cameron walking away into a pink and gold sunset, then raising his two forefingers in a victory salute. Captions on the reel read: I’m really enjoying my job. Every event is different; it’s fun, exciting and always changing. I’m working at Live at Wythenshawe Park! I’m learning lots about myself; I’m surprised I’m so comfortable at large events - I‘m not usually a fan of big crowds! It’s getting easier to adapt to different situations, my timekeeping is better and I’ve learnt the importance of taking a break! I enjoy working with other people. It feels great when managers recognise my hard work. I’d love to work at Formula 1 or the Isle of Wight festival. I’m excited to see where this opportunity takes me!
