À propos de ce contenu audio
In this week's episode Tim Mercer talks to Jacob Hill.
While at university Jacob set up a company The Lazy Camper in 2011 with over £300,000 invested and personally backed by Richard Branson, how could it all go wrong?
Well, massively, unbelievably to be honest.
It has all the hallmarks of a great film - University student wins awards, becomes the poster boy,
then it all starts to go wrong, fast, and the "can do no wrong" student ends up receiving a 28 month prison sentence for drug dealing at the festival he was booked to work with.
"Prison was the best thing that ever happened to me", really, honestly, we'll let you decide.
Since leaving prison Jacob founded The Offploy foundation, a national social recruitment partner helping non other than the inmates he was incarcerated with.
"We are on a mission to reduce reoffending and make society safer by placing people with criminal convictions into meaningful, mentored and sustainable employment".
Jacob is so honest and open it was a true pleasure to interview him.
