<p>In this episode, we chat with Mark and Jordan from the FAR Centre in Fenham, Newcastle. The FAR centre is a community project that started in the 1980s when community members (and radical mams) of Fenham took the fate of their area into their own hands. The FAR centre is an amazing example of the impact we can make when we have common values in our communities and how we can provide for the most disadvantaged through community action. Jordan has been a user and family member of the FAR centre since he was a child and is now is heading the "I Will" project. He shares his insight about being a young person in Fenham and the importance of sharing young people's valuable experiences.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Thank you to Mark and Jordan (and the lovely people in the FAR centre) for having me round their gaff for the afternoon, please check out their amazing work at <a href="https://twitter.com/far_centre">@far_centre</a> on Twitter.&nbsp;</p>
