The Sit Down: How Can We Keep Young People Out Of Prison? | Bobby Kasanga

Our first episode of The Sit Down features Bobby Kasanga who served nearly 8 years in prison. He talks to us about how he got recruited as a Peckham boy and how this led him to his time inside. Since coming out, Bobby has created Hackney Wick’s first ever semi-professional football club and here he tells us how he uses this, and his media company Big Ego, to support young people.

This podcast is also available as a video – just search Life After Prison on YouTube.
