Josh Munns is originally from London but hemoved up to the East Midlands to change his life around and get the support and help he needed in my battle with addiction.

He is currently volunteering his services through cutting hair for the service users in some drop in centres, he is also on a course at the minute doing a Level 2 youth course to become a youth worker.

He has an amazing story to share to those who are wanting to make a change in their life’s and to just share to those so that they can see there is hope out there.

Key points of the show:

• His life as a kid. And how his parents relationship affected him.
• How his Dad's problems caused him to grow up very quickly.
• How he had hardly anyone to talk to.
• How he felt he had missed out on the "fun" stuff like alcohol, weed and gambling.
• The progression from cocaine to crack and heroin.
• The beginning of how he turned his life around.
• How gambling is marketed as very "male" and "macho"
• How it becomes addictive.
• Advice for carers for people with a gambling addiction.
• His podcast which shares lived experience.
• The importance to him of giving back.
