Kenzie Diverted
Over the last few months Kenzie a young person on our Divert Youth Programme and has made great progress in his social, mental and physical wellbeing. The programme supports local youngsters aged 10-17 who either live in or are educated in Lancashire and are known to offend or be at risk of offending behaviours in the future.
Kenzie has wanted to make a positive change to himself and his community. He has been taking part in all activities that Divert has put on for him. He has taken a great interest in Fit 2 Fight kickboxing where he attends twice a week and trains to a high standard.
One of the biggest achievements Kenzie has accomplished is raising money for his Uncle Mick who is going to Mexico to Halt the progressive MS. He did this by creating a sponsor form and raised £830 by walking up Pendle Hill with the rest of his peers and dad.
Kenzie’s dad has said, “I would like to say thank you to Kathryn and the team at Divert for their amazing work with the young ones. It’s great to see the kids enjoying themselves and it’s down to people like Kathryn that spend quality time supporting and helping. I am so grateful for all your support with Kenzie.”
“It’s been great to see how Kenzie has developed over the last few months from meeting him first at school to where he is now. He has given everything he does a 100% and is a great role model to his peers.”
