Name: Aky Javed
Age: 18
Year of the Fix: 2013
Location: Leeds
Campaign: Peace Over Violence

I used to get into fights all the time but, looking back, I do regret them.

 

Fighting in school can stay with you for the rest of your life, and it only takes one punch.

 

I'm not exactly proud of what I've done, but now I feel it my duty to mentor young people who may be in the same position I was.

 

The aim of my Fix is to bring young people together for a common cause.

 

At the time, you don't really think about why you're getting into fights. But as you get older that voice of reason in your head gets a bit louder. This is the message I want to promote.

Here is a list of Fixers helping me with my Fix:

Saba  Kauser

Sadiyah  Malik

Nicole Gibson

 

I would also like to give a special thank you to everyone at the Al-Haqq Supplementary School who support my Fixers project and have helped throughout my campaign.
