It's tough growing up. Kids these days have a high stress, high anxiety world of social pressure to battle against as well as the extra challenges and struggles that come with living situation and environment.

Amen Dhesi is a young carer and sports science graduate. Amen has made it his mission to take his own challenging experience of growing up, and combine it with his knowledge of how sport and exercise can benefit kids both mentally and emotionally, to create a non-profit organisation called "Imagine Bradford." He now strives to increase the positivity levels of teenagers in and around Bradford and beyond, as well as giving them a safe place to improve their health and avoid the negative pulls that exist around teenagers - that can gravitate them towards inevitable depression - Depression that can severely hinder their adult lives and hold them back from enjoying life.
