Facilitators work directly with young people, run regular group sessions and help young people develop positive relationship that enables them to live successfully in their homes.
Hi! My name is Shaq and I’m one of the Local House Project Facilitators here in Sandwell starting in February 2024.
I have over 10 years’ experience working with children and young people across various roles and settings including primary schools, secondary schools and in local authorities.
I feel privileged to be able to support young people and see them overcome challenges, take control over their lives and reflect on what they have been able to achieve. I have a keen interest in sports, art and most definitely food!
