"It's very clicky and some people don't talk to each other or some people might look down on others because of what they do. It's got better over the years. It was very segregated... depending on what part of the Arts you worked... determined how you were judged". Sharon Salihu, Mental Heath First Aider and Administration Manager.

Sharon talks to us about accidentally falling into her job after failing her A-Levels, becoming a fan of wrestling as a channel of acceptance, the pressure on teenagers to choose a vocation and how we are expected to behave in a certain way at work, a way which silences your voice and your ideas. Honest, extremely relatable and unmissable.
