WEX Program Empowers Next Generation with Real-World Projects Benefiting London Communities
LONDON, UK (Brentford) – September 4, 2025 – A local Work Experience (WEX) initiative is celebrating the significant achievements of its student participants, who are applying their skills to impactful projects that foster community development and environmental sustainability. The program provides a vital link between education and industry, offering young minds a platform to gain practical, real-world skills.
Recent successes highlight the program’s value. Omran and Marcel, students from St. Charles Sixth Form College, are developing a live selling studio designed to support and elevate small businesses within the Hounslow area. Their project aims to provide local entrepreneurs with the tools and platform needed to thrive in a competitive market. In parallel, Oliver, a student from Gunnersbury Catholic Sixth Form, is contributing to the development of a London-based Sustainable Wellness Resort. His work focuses on integrating principles of mental wellness and environmental responsibility, showcasing a commitment to a healthier future.
The Summer WEX program also offered valuable experiences to students like Ulani and Sinead from Sixth Form Brentford school.
Ulani reflected, “I felt proud knowing that the work I completed supported real projects and contributed to their success, showing me how much of an impact even small contributions can have in a professional environment.” Sinead added, “I realised how rewarding it is to see your efforts contribute to real projects and make a difference.”
Both students credited their time at CCJM Consulting with boosting their confidence, independence, and adaptability, and giving them practical exposure to marketing, communications, and project management.
Marcel shared his thoughts on the experience: “My work experience with CCJM Consulting was amazing. I learned so much about marketing, teamwork, and project management through the Tada! project. The team was supportive, creative, and really valued my input. A great place to grow and gain real-world experience!”
Oliver also reflected on his placement: “I recently completed my work experience here and it was really great. Miss Morin provided me with an amazing project to complete that gave me a really good insight into project management and marketing and what it’s like to work in the real working world.”
