Fiona is a single mum from Harlesden, who finished training in November 2013. The support from Harlesden JCP made it possible for her to complete the training, offering Fiona child care assistance whilst on the programme.
"My time spent on the MAMA Youth Project was everything I expected and so much more. I had an idea at the beginning of some some of the things that I would be doing whilst training but did not realise how in depth it would really be. We learnt how to do everything on a successful production, from researching to going out on shoot and editing.
I'm truly grateful for everything that I've learnt from MYP, from my colleagues and the staff. It's really given me the ultimate head start thats needed in order to thrive and achieve in working in television. It gave me so much experience that I now have a job working at Shine Group TV!" - January 2014
