"From day 1, Nick and the team have accepted us all and guided us through a continuing time of emotional hardship. To know that my 4 children have a safe place they can go to let off steam, gain reassurance from trusted adults, all whilst having fun and learning new skills, is an immense relief to me."
— Parent of four of our club members

"MTV has helped me throughout the last 12 years of my life with so many different things, like when I struggled with mainstream education due to bullying and confidence issues. And now as an adult it's given me the training to help children who are facing the same difficulties I went through."
— MTV Leader and former club member (20 years old)

"I live on the local estate, and I know how much MTV helps the young people and families like my own. It's so needed, providing low cost activities, like the sport and cooking which have helped my 2 older children's health. I have 5 kids and we live in a 2-bed property, so life is challenging."

"Joining the youth club has had a very big influence on my life. It helped guide me through the most crucial and hard times along with the small and basic things such as being taught how to shave. Coming from a disadvantaged background, personally these little things amount to a lot more."
— Original club member (now aged 27)
