This week we hear from my foster brother Mez.

This is an important episode for me because it was Mez becoming my brother that was the catalyst to me quitting my job in fashion and focusing all my energy into the refugee crisis and The Worldwide Tribe...but that’s a story for another episode.

Today Mez shares his story of resilience and survival. From fleeing compulsory military service in his home country when he was 13, to crossing the Sahara Desert and not eating for 15 days. From his boat capsizing in the Mediterranean Sea to hiding underneath the Eurotunnel train to get to the UK.

Mez is the inspiration behind everything I do, and you will soon see why…
