Helping disadvantaged youth and those being diverted from a life of crime to start a journey in business.
Blog by Martyn Linton – Founder of SME Business Concierge Ltd
Those who know me will tell you that for a number of years I have taught law enforcement professionals from across the world and UK professionals such a social workers, people in the NHS and others such as HM Prison staff in gang tactics and exploitation. I support the work of gang diversion charities and good causes. It is a subject that I am passionate about. Why?
In my teens I was a member of a low level street gang. I dropped out of school with no GCSE’s and was heading towards jail or the morgue. Thanks to some interventions and support I changed my life for the better and have had a substance and crime free life ever since.
Now as a small business owner I want to give a bit back and work with disadvantaged youths and those escaping a life of crime to help them make the change I did.
Training is one thing but I am taking my passion straight to those who need it and I am going to work with crime diversion organisations to help people gain the education they need to help them find employment or start their journey as a business owner.
For every £3 (cost price) we raise we will provide a business or other related course such as food hygiene to someone who needs it to better themselves.
