The Impact
The Restart Scheme Blue pilot started in June 2023 with 319 participants. Following the success of the pilot, Restart Scheme Blue was expanded and officially launched in April 2024 to all Serco delivery partners in West Central and Wales.
The programme now employs nine part-time mentors. The innovative approach of Restart Scheme Blue has succeeded in helping 194* more people into work, with that figure expected to rise with many more individuals currently on the tailored scheme. Serco are currently” the only Restart Scheme provider to offer this tailored support to these individuals.

"Restart Scheme Blue has been truly valued by our participants; the feedback is nothing but positive and life changing. Having dedicated, 1:1, quality support has not only equipped them to apply for their dream roles but has held their hand through the journey. The dedication and buy in from the mentors in what we are trying to achieve has been phenomenal. Their skills and coaching have created such a great impact to help people with their chosen career paths.” Specialist Provisions Manager - Ruth Bardsley
"Three words sum up my time with Restart Blue: positivity, support, and opportunity. My mentor and her team have provided each in ample measure. As a relatively new scheme, the service from Restart Scheme Blue has been well organised, friendly, and supportive. My mentor has brought her engaging personality to each session, listening to and acting on concerns and priorities.”
