S1: Anisha

Available for over a year

HEAR ME is a BBC Young Reporter's podcast, which explores what identity means for young people growing up Britain today. Anisha's story is about how her family has shaped her identity, but how being in care has allowed her to explore it. Anisha grew up in a strong valued Sikh household until the age of 12 where she was placed in care. She believes that care has been a positive in her life and through her new family, she has found the strength to be true to herself.
