Revos has supported me in turning my dream into a reality.
Their program has given me self-belief that anything I put my mind to, with hard work is possible.
and not only have they supported me in the construction of my business but they have also introduce me to influential people who can help my business grow.

I first engaged with Ricky Gardner as a Peer Motivator, i have learnt a vast amount of things since being a Peer Motivator like how to support young people, how to work in a team, and how to evaluate sessions. Moreover this gave me the opportunity to build my confidence in working with young people…..

I was then hired by Brent Youth Service as a youth worker because of the skills i had acquired from Peer Motivator…..and have had the oppotunity to work in other boroughs such as Ealing and Hammersmith & Fulham. I have been a leader in charge of my own sessions….applied for funding and taken young people on residential

I am now a qualified teacher of Physical Education and teach in Secondary Schools in Brent.
This has assisted me and given me the confidence to work with multi-cultural young people and some young people that can be challenging and I use these experiences in the classroom. if I had not volunteered…….I may not be as lucky today and have the right tools to deal with children of today’s society.

Ricky Gardner has been a valuable source of training and Mentoring throughout my developmental and professional life. The wealth of knowledge he has provided to me over the years has enabled me to gain skills in planning, management, organization, and evaluation skills which have proven to be priceless in my career as a film maker and now Teacher. Rarely is it possible to meet someone as dedicated to the development of young people, who is always willing to offer a fresh sense of direction on varying topics that young adults can come across. I’ve always been grateful for the sense of empowerment I have felt as a result of the support he has offered over the years and look forward to sharing my progress and working with him in the years to come.
