In his own words, Stu Holmes had a ‘blessed childhood’. He wanted to party and party he did. Hard. 

His life centered around drinking, partying and drug taking. It was never going to end well. Stu eventually found himself in a very dark and lonely place where he believed ending his life was the only answer. 

He’d lost his wife, his children, his friends, his reputation, his career a everything else he had. In his mind his life was worthless. His behaviour became so erratic he held up a post office with a knife, which led to a term of imprisonment for armed robbery. And that’s where everything changed.

Prison gave Stu an opportunity to dry out, to think about what a mess he’d made of his life and this was his chance at redemption.

After his release, he founded a recruitment agency called ‘The Green Collar Brigade’ which, in conjunction with WISE Employment Group, helps those coming out of prison, find meaningful employment & believes everyone deserves a second chance.
