Naomi Taylor at her supported accommodation.
A STUDENT who turned her life around is up for a top award.
Naomi Taylor, 19, has been nominated for the Youth Academy Award by staff at the Mersea Road Family Mosaic team who provide guidance and advice for young people on housing and budgeting.
When Miss Taylor became involved in the Family Mosaic scheme she was struggling with life and getting in trouble with the police and the team helped her to get back on track.
She is now up for the Youth Academy Challenger award.
- Online voting for the award closes on Wednesday (February 13). To find out more and to vote visit the Family Mosaic Facebook page.

weesley, chubster and blue frog... i wish you had done something with YOUR lives instead of ripping into someone that has bettered themselves....shame on you.... Young people deserve encouragement instead of belittling them. Get a life! Good luck Naomi, don't let misanthropic fools like them get you down....

How was I "ripping into her?"
The story isn't particularly informative is it!
