I do a lot of work in Manchester, helping young people, creating a voice and helping them with their aspirations especially around Performing Arts.

I met Her Majesty the Queen in 2012, then received a letter from the prime minister in 2017 for the work and effort in Moss Side and helping to change the image and stereotypes.

Hello All, My thoughts are with you and your families during these unprecedented times!

We can all appreciate the current challenges but staying connected to others is very important even though we cannot be together in person.

During this time, I continue to reach out through various forms of social media channels, I am doing Quarantine Games with my KYSO Group each week, giving young people a platform to get involved and talk part on Instagram, they get the chance to answer quizzes and showcase their talent.
