Description

John Bosco grew up in Nigeria, but says there was so much violence where they lived that his family decided he'd be safer abroad. He arrived in Heathrow as an unaccompanied asylum seeker aged 15. There are now more than 7000 asylum-seeking children in the UK. John Bosco's honest account is a rare opportunity to understand what it’s like to arrive alone as a child in an unfamiliar land.

In Shift Happens, psychotherapist, former teacher, and Jamie’s Farm co-founder Tish Feilden is in conversation with young people we hear a lot about but don't often hear from; raw, moving accounts of teenagers who were not succeeding within the school system, only to turn their lives around. She explores with them exactly what it was that made the difference.
