I was based on the Blacon Neighbourhood Management Pathfinder scheme.
I always wanted to work with young people giving them drugs advice and was able to tailor my experience to that. I worked towards an NVQ Level 2 in community safety. I developed a bike scheme structured around repair and maintenance with young people, who got to keep the bikes. I now have a job with Blacon as a community safety project worker.
