Knife Crime.
How many times have we heard it on the news in recent times? Too many!
Such a hot topic of discussion, yet not everyone understands the FUNDAMENTAL issues which lead to these unfortunate events – family instability, insecurity, vulnerability and external influences from different people and environments.
In this episode I speak to a young man who was forced to leave his family home at the age of 14, which left him vulnerable and fending for himself, and by his own admission this is what led him to find comfort within a gang. We discuss the mentality he developed when he made friends after he moved out and how he ended up being involved in a life changing incident with a rival gang.
This is a truly eye opening episode, with a REAL story.
