Sheldon Thomas is the founder of Gangsline Foundation Trust, a pioneering organisation that supports young people caught up in gangs. Once involved in gangs himself, Sheldon now dedicates his life to prevention and intervention; he has worked around the world to give young people a second chance through his mentoring schemes.

On this episode of How Do We Manage Sheldon tells Stephanie about his own experiences of gang life as a young man, why conversations around immigrants get in the way of the real issues at hand, what politicians are getting wrong, why prevention starts at home with positive male role models, and how parents and carers can recognise the signs that their children might be targeted by a gang.
