     THE JJ EFFECT 

Some of the Coastal Path Care team had the privilege of taking part in The JJ Effect  and what an experience it was.

The session was incredibly well presented, thought-provoking, and truly engaging from start to finish. Byron delivered powerful message around knife crime that left a real impact on everyone in the room. His ability to share lived experience in such an honest and meaningful way is something you can’t replicate in a textbook, it’s the kind of training that stays with you.

The feedback from staff has been overwhelmingly positive. This is exactly the kind of real, relatable input our sector needs. We couldn’t recommend it enough, The JJ Effect is the real deal.

Huge thank you to Byron Highton for your time, passion, and bravery in sharing your story. Lived experience is the most powerful form of education.
