Enfield (Sort It!)

Hi, my name is Steve and I’m the service manager for Compass Sort it! in Enfield.

I’ve worked here for many years now forging networks with various professionals to ensure that we work together to create the best services that we can for young people.

My interests outside work are the gym, reading, watching short films and informative video and playing snooker.

Ultimately I’m here for you, the youth of the Borough. I recognise that many young people are facing difficult times and it’s down to us to ensure that we are in the right place and saying the right things, so that you feel empowered to ask for help, information and advice whenever you need to.

My aspiration is to create a service where young people are no longer worried about approaching us for information or support, after all whilst some drugs are illegal; talking about them and making sure you understand how they affect you, should never be!

Hi, my name is Alaicha and I am the Interim Service Manager at Enfield, Sort IT!

I have worked across a number of boroughs throughout London, contributing to the development of substance misuse service and holistic wellbeing services for young people.

The challenges that young people face have certainly evolved and the choices available to them to inform their life outcomes have become blurred. So, it is our intention to ensure that we equip young people with the knowledge and resilience to navigate their wellbeing through providing an accessible and safe space for learning.

Outside of my role, I enjoy reading and exercising as well as mentoring young people in my local community. I, wholly, believe that in advancing as a community, no young person should be left behind – our services works to ensure this is a reality for the young people in Enfield

Hey my name is Nicole I am practitioner for the Enfield Hidden Harm and Sort it! Young People’s services.

I started as a volunteer with Compass and became a full time worker 2 years ago. My role involves supporting families into drug and alcohol treatment and helping parents and carers recognise the impact their substance misuse has had on their family. I also support young people between the ages of 12 and 18 who misuse substances; working particularly closely with young people that are hard to engage in services.

My interests include practising mindfulness and yoga, socialising and researching alternative therapies for mental health problems such as social prescribing. It is my objective to contribute to helping my community thrive.

Hi my name’s Anthony and I’m the senior practitioner. We help young people to explore how drug and alcohol use can negatively impact on their social, emotional and educational development. We provide young people with a service that supports their personal needs by working in a flexible and non-judgmental framework in which young people can feel able to receive a holistic, personalised support programme.

Hello! My name is Jomila and I’m the Drug and Alcohol worker for Compass Sort IT Enfield.

My role is to help young people understand the effects substances can have on their mental health and general health. I aim to provide tailored support to empower them to reduce risk and increase resilience so they could lead a safe and healthy life. I work to enable young people to want to make the changes for themselves so they can recognise their own achievements.

My interests include spending time with my little boy, travelling and reading. My ultimate goal since having my own child is to work with young people because they are the future. Thus I want to make sure young people get the best in life through good guidance and influence.

I want as many young people off the streets and living their best life!

Hi, my name is Saida and I’m a Drug and Alcohol worker for young people.

In 2015 I completed my placement at Compass Sort it & I loved the way they gave young a voice and the free flowing support that was available. Fast forward to 2020 where I’ve graduated in Applied Social Science Community and Youth Work and I find myself applying for a job in the very place I did my placement with.
Now I’m part of the team who give young people a voice!

My aim is to ensure that every single young person gets a chance to be a successful, no matter where they’re coming from.

I enjoy playing badminton, reading and gardening 💐
