About this episode
This week on the podcast we sit down with Matthew Norford, a former Manchester gang member who turned his life around to become a youth mentor and role model. In this powerful episode, Matthew opens up about his early life in gangs, the influence of his brother Gary, going to prison at a young age, being shot, and time inside Strangeways. He also shares how he broke free from that lifestyle and the work he now does to help steer young people away from the same path. An honest, raw and inspiring conversation that shows no matter how far you’ve fallen, change is possible. Thanks for listening and watching this episode.
