“Knives, gangs and kids: how to break the cycle”—The Guardian has written a feature about The Agency
Amelia Hill of The Guardian wrote a piece about The Agency. It begins below and continues on The Guardian’s website:
When Henrietta Imoreh was 17, she pulled a knife on a girl at her school. She was arrested and expelled. Her life trajectory seemed destined for a downward arc.
Henrietta had been in eight foster homes since she was 14. At the time she threatened her schoolmate, she was living alone in a hostel, scared, angry and alienated.
But now she sits in Ernst & Young’s office block in London’s Canary Wharf, where she has been setting up a new role of careers consultant for young people in care for E&Y Foundation. She will take on the full-time role herself in January.
