The programme has shown me how I can be in control. I am responsible and will achieve my goals.
The coach has been through what I have been through. If he can change, so can I.
I am no longer thinking I can't, instead I think how can I. Thank you for helping me transform.
Brightstar has given me a future.
Being around people that are going through the same things as me, but helping each other on the programme and in life shows me I'm not alone.
I’ve always tried to blame other people, I’ve not learned what I can control.
I am able to release my aggression in a positive way.
I now have the right people around me.
We started as a boxing club, but we’re now so much more.
The students look forward to attending every week. The provision has improved their school experience.
