During his time at Liverpool Community College Wahib has gained a level 2 Technical Certificate on the motor vehicle full time programme and now is employed by Liverpool Community Transport where his main duties are the maintenance and repair of minibuses used to transport local schoolchildren to and from school. He has now begun his Motor Vehicle Apprenticeship programme at the College to complete his level 2 NVQ and hopefully progress to level 3.
Since leaving school Wahib has worked as a voluntary youth leader in the Al-Ghazali Youth Club in Liverpool 8. As well as assisting with paperwork and general duties, he has supported pursuits and fundraising activities, including day trips for children to participate in horse riding, go karting and special sporting events such as football, cricket and karate. Wahib has also assisted in organising fun trips to Blackpool to see the lights, Alton Towers and the Blue Planet Aquarium.
The club is open to two age groups, 6-16 and 16+. Wahib feels that through volunteering at the youth club he is helping the local youth to find a focus and purpose, as well as a safe place to enjoy themselves away from the streets
Wahib is currently working towards a youth team leader badge and completing health & safety and first aid courses.
