Amani Simpson

Amani Simpson was stabbed seven times when he intervened in a friend’s dispute over stolen goods that quickly escalated out of control and saw him confronted by a 20-strong gang.

Now a motivational speaker and community worker Amani Simpson leads Aviard Inspires, a youth-led organisation with an ever-growing passion for helping other young people reach their full potential.

His first film, Amani, based on his life has just been released.
