Drew Telfer doesn't have the kind of support structure around him that most 17-year-olds are lucky enough to have as they enter adulthood. He spent most of his childhood in care.
"My parents couldn’t care for me because it was all really bad in the house," he told WalesOnline. "When I was little, they couldn’t handle me. They shouldn’t have had me because they weren’t ready for me, they weren’t ready to have a child.
"I don’t have much memories of growing up there - somehow I’ve just sort of blanked all that out. I just remember feeling destroyed, I couldn’t care for myself and I was always angry. I struggled in school, they knew what I was going through.
