Your passion to help?

I have worked in the community for 17 years and have always had a passion to help the disadvantaged individuals to look beyond their difficulties and be more focus on their success. It gives me that extra excitement and boost to know that I have helped others to make a difference in their lives. The more I omit this people come back to just say thank you, I'm always on the look out to support someone else.

My work in the past need re-wording as follows:

I have been actively involved in the community for 20 years working with disadvantaged individuals  and groups within the deprived communities around the country. I have a passion to help people  look beyond their difficulties and be more focus on their success. The greatest reward is when they would come back to just say ‘thank you’  take action and go on better themselves, gave me that extra boost and excitement on the look out to support someone else.

The way you have already helped people?

Because of my concerns for men motivated me to set up a mens group  who were suffering  low self value about themselves, lack positive role model in their life's  fatherless during their childhood, or got caught up in crime etc. It does have  an effect on their manhood spiritually and physically. Setting up this group  has encourages men to develop their self esteem,  and communicate about their challenges and fears and edifying each other. The men come from different cultures and walks of lifes i.e. students, married, youths, Christians, single parents and professionals.

Specifically what you provide for people?

I encourage people to change their negative ways of thinking about themselves so they have a positive perspective on life.

• Help Overcome fear
• Help develop self confidence
• Help them making confidence life choices

Your success?

After years of hard struggle but patience my success is been able to set up my own business free2live2. A business I truly believed will be a benefit to many people. Now that the opportunity is here I look forward to help people achieve their goals and become successful

You're Adventure

Challenges that you have overcome?

• Due to being disabled I faced many barriers in the education system teachers would label me as  a underachiever. I never relies this kind of treatment could have such an  effect  on me until I got older it left emotional scars in my life. I then soon discovered  how  to turn this  negative experience into something positive and better myself and rise above my circumstances . Throughout all that I gladly can say that I am an over comer.
