What do you love about your job:
Connection with the young people. There is a real sense of community and family and the young people are all so real.

You get the chance to understand the sense of community through the young people and their schools, which is what I really admire about this place.

Favourite activity to do in the centre:
I enjoy facing off against some of the young people in a “friendly” game of pool as we hang out in the pool room.
