Name: Ashia Anderson
Age: 23
Year of the Fix: 2013
Location: Birmingham
Campaign: Inspiring young people to take up performing arts

I’ve been dancing since I was three years old. There is nothing else I can think of doing - it’s my dream.

 

Working with Fixers, I want to help inspire young people to be creative and use their talent.

 

There is so much potential out there. If only people were confident enough, or knew where to take it.

 

My mum became ill so I had to stop dancing for three years. Now that she’s better it’s been like a new life for me.

 

I hope to encourage more young people to think creatively and use their talents in a positive way.

 

I’m doing what I love and that’s the message I want to share with others.

 

Hopefully working with Fixers I can encourage more youngsters to realise their potential.

 

I think young people need some sort of direction in their lives and I want to help them achieve something they wouldn’t have.

 

That’s what my aim is.
