I’m Mark, I’m from Leicester. A few years back, I ended up on the wrong side of things - got involved with a bad group, made a stupid decision, and it landed me in prison. I don’t like to dwell on it, but I won’t lie: it was a rough time.
I’m Anna, 28, from North London. I got caught driving without a licence three years ago. It wasn’t violent or anything, but the record has stuck with me - and it’s made renting a flat a nightmare for me.
