TRIGGER WARNING: This podcast covers sensitive topics that may be triggering for some. If you need support, there are links below.
Treat the Youths Right, the show inspired by the wonderful Jimmy Cliff song of the same name, aims to help close the gap between the lived reality of young people today, and the adulsts who support them.
Hearing straight from the sources mouth, young people from across the UK join me in conversations on topics that matter to them.

Help me, help young people get involved
Currently the young people involved are doing it, because they are passionate, interested and getting involved out of the kindness of their hearts. However, in order for us to reach a more diverse group of young people, something called 'remuneration' can be key!
With this in mind, if you would like to support the podcast and the work I do, then please 'BUY ME A COFFEE' - This money will go towards remunerating and/or paying for young peoples expesnes, to enable them to be involved in my podcast.
