“We are a close group of mates, we all go out together, no one gets left out. We feel different from other people from other areas, we are not the same, none of us left with any GCSE’s I don’t know why, I wish I had of stuck in more at school. I’m looking for a job but it’s not easy and I’m not getting anywhere”.
