On the BIG thought this week we had the pleasure of hearing Najee's powerful and emotive story. Najee describes the difficult and challenging conditions he had to contend with growing up in the midlands of the UK. Najee gives an open and honest account of his life up until this point, talking about his difficult upbringing, caring for a parent that struggled with addiction, the joy and solace he found in sport, and how life profoundly changed after the tragic passing of his mother. This inspiring story is a testament to his strong will and determination to not let life be poisoned with hate and despair, instead, facing his problems with love and understanding, drawing him closer to people and opportunities that would ultimately change his life for the better.
