CASE STUDY
Each week, during that time together. they would do a
variety of activities including bodminton. bowling, and
football.
Jasper's Story
Asjohn rM*ed, Korl liftedhim. his mood up, hisconfidence.
everything,, helpingjasper to develop into a 'nice little
human being.'At the time, Josper needed a positive role
model in his life. arising from issues with his father. and
here Karl stepped up. Karl became a positive influence in
Jasperfs life, andgave him'the chance to change,. He really
loved being mentored and actively looked forward to the
Ourmentored youngperson. Jasper. had a tough
childhc*)dl*ore he became engoged with The Island. In
Jasperfseorty Yea￿ he was emotionally and physically
abused by his father, who. olong with his mum. was
olso misusingdnjgs ond alcohol. He saw'thing5 kid5
shouldn'tsee at thot age,. The homesituation was
unsafe. and Josper's matemalgrondparents would
eventuollyhove to interveneond tske him on. asspecial
Suordions. for his own protection in 2016.
Ja5per'5 troubled upbringing had a profound effect on
his psyche and viewof lift. JaspersgrandodJohn told
The Island that he found social interaction difficult
and was 'very shy'oround other5. He would olso often
become frustrated with his feelings, which led to
aggressive outbursts in the family home,. he 'was fiery
and low.. Ultimately. John felt that Josper needed a
k￿￿ve role model ashe couldn'tsetthrough to himon
certain stuff.,
Fost-forward to the present. Jasper is thriving, with a
completely different, and more posltive outlook on life
compared to when he wos first reftrred to The Island. He
is now more outsoing. and hi5 educotionol ottainment
hasalso vastly improved. 'he'5got the highest lomountof]
stamps in his year,. and John also notesgettingpositive
emails from his teachers regularly. In the future. he wishes
to study illustration at University and become o Graphic
Designer. Josper is now hopeful about his trajectoryand
ha5 notlet hisnegative earlychildhood derail his lift.
John. his8randod. puts these changesdown to Thelsland
and hismentor Karl.As he put when Thelslond interviewed
him.-'It'sgot to be the best thing that's happened tojosper.
If you land on anything then we landed lucky when we
mode thrtfirstphoneo711[to The Island],
Jasper was referred to The151and in 2019 and would
receive a range of SUPFQrt through the tharitydesigned
to improve his self-e5teem and confidence. He began
to attend our Thursday Youth Groups. which John
notes improved the home situation and led to Josperfs
a88ression dropping. The Thur5dayGroups made the
Wednesdaygood because we looked forword to the
Thursday. and itmode the Fridaygood because we
were talking about what happened on the Thursday..
Moreover, The Island also organised entire family
getoways, whichgavejasper time to bond with his
grandparen
However. John. overall. viewed the mentorrelationship
with lQ7rl as having themostpositive impact improving
Jaspers outlook. and bettering his confidence and
self-esteem. In October 2021. The Islond motched
Jasper with Karl, and theywenton to h<M a mentoring
relationship thot lasted 22 month&
