“I needed to get into a routine, gain confidence and become more independent.”

Name Elicia

Age 16

Programme #NoLimits 3

Where is she now? Elicia started a part-time job at Sainsbury’s, and started back at school to study her A Levels in September.

I live at home with my family. I have a disability but this does not define who I am. I will be returning back to school to complete my A Levels, then I will go onto university to study criminology.

I chose to join the No Limits programme because I needed to get into a routine, gain confidence and become more independent.

My hopes and aspirations for after the programme is to be more confident, to be unafraid and able to mix with new people.

For my photo, I brought my headphones. I have really bad ‘sound anxiety’ and they help me to manage this.
