Steven said: “It was different to most youth clubs in that there would be inspirational speakers from all walks of life from people in the media to people from overseas.
“It inspired me to do more than just exist. I started as a youth worker at the church and also began doing spoken word.
“This helped me with what I was going through at the time.”
Steven began to change his perspective.
He went from signing on to an inspirational speaker, inspiring thousands with his positive message.
