A turning point in life
When it was dark, my brothers would pick me up and we would walk the streets... I hated school and wanted to drop out early.
Then I was introduced to a Graeme Dingle Foundation programme for young people that need a boost in life. It helped me build my self-confidence and social skills. We were paired with a mentor, my mentor Tony believed in me like no one else. Because of him I stayed in school, went to university and now have a full time job.
