My life summarised

My early years

My mother had me at 18 years old. My father was a paranoid schizophrenic which lead to many disastrous experiences in my early childhood. Nevertheless I love them both dearly and feel lucky to call them mum and dad.

11-19 Years

Events in my childhood lead me to the streets where I was adopted by criminal gangs. This also lead me into the care system where I was chucked from placement to placement. Eventually becoming what poisons the streets of Britain today.

My salvation

After being arrested for a crime I did not commit I decided that I had enough. The moment I got out the nick I flew to where my family originate from. This was where I found my purpose. That purpose is doing everything I can to save people from a life knee deep in the county line.

"You are truly inspirational and the whole team found it really valuable, saying it was the best team meeting for ages. You are a very good speaker, really engaging with the right amount of humour."
