I’m from Pitsmoor. I decided to get involved with youth work when I went on a 4 week course, introduction to youth and community work. Before this I was involved in football coaching at local schools and community resource centres.
I think the area has changed in many ways although there is still room for improvement, as there is not enough youth provision. Facilities that captivate young people such as music studio, sport centre, Astroturf football pitch with a floodlight area are all positive improvements to the area and would encourage young people to engage positively.
I want to make a positive impact on the community and surrounding communities using my skills and knowledge. I think young people in the area can relate to me as I live and was raised in the area and I understand the issues that young people face.
