I was interviewed by Liz Harding from Generate and this is the outcome. A wonderful, inspiring read that really took my breath away. Upon reading the article, I found it hard to believe it was me they were talking about! I’m honoured to be affiliated with such a reputable company as Generate. “Our goal is
I can’t explain just how amazing this program is. If there’s anyway you can help or support this program, please do it! Today there was 14 young people on the course and we (Steven and myself) managed to assist Rose (ARSU nurse) in presenting some basic facts to them. The program itself is aimed at
