Name: Patricio Duzda
Age: 16
Year of the Fix: 2014
Location: Margate, Kent
Campaign: To stop young people getting involved in drugs and violence

My team and I have grown up in a part of Kent called Cliftonville, which is in Margate.

There are things that go on in the area that we don’t like – mainly drugs and violence.

We’re sick of this happening in our community and want to tell others that there is a different and better way to live.

With Fixers, we’re working on a music video to go with a song we’ve written.

We hope that people will listen to us and understand the issues we want to raise.

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

 

Aron Cuga Bromleigh McKenzie
Connor Airs Diana Tulejova
Edyta Jobczynska Ellecia English
Erik Totlar Jarbo Tobar
Julia Balogoua Lea Tatarova
Louis Choules Megan Hobby
Michal Balog Nikoleta Balogora
Roman Drezi Roman Mike
Shannon Elvidge Sky Reynolds
Stuart Moore  

Youth Social Action Fund

My Fixers project is supported by the Cabinet Office’s Youth Social Action Fund.

As part of the Cabinet Office initiative ‘Step Up to Serve’, which is spearheaded by HRH the Prince of Wales, Fixers is working in partnership with the Youth Social Action Fund (YSAF) to offer the Fixer experience specifically to young people aged between 16 and 20 in Birmingham and parts of Kent.

 

Kotchin Seager

Thank you to Kotchin for helping us to record the song for our Fixers campaign. 

 

The Quarterdeck Youth Centre

Thank you for allowing us to use the space for our meetings about the campaign.

November 2014

We had some really great feedback left on our music video from various people. You can read some of these comments below:

 

Julie Larner, Platforma

'Excellent music video. Thought provoking lyrics and well put together.'

 

Rosie Escott, Music for Change

'Good work, encouraging young people to express themselves.'

 

John Speyer, Music in Detention

'It's great giving young people a platform to do this. Strong lyrics and great visuals!'

 

Douglas Noble, Platforma

'Very strong lyrically. This is conscious but gritty and very real.'

 

David Herd, Refugee Tales Canterbury

'Clear and strong verbal performance, I really liked it!'
