JJS Empowerment is a not-for-profit construction support organisation in north Norfolk, giving young people hands-on experience in the building trades. 

Jake Stewart, Jeremy Rogers and Sandor Stark, all 19, are the young men the company is named after.

It is now appealing for funding and for an electrician willing to take on the three young men so they can complete their level three qualification.  

The venture started after Jeremy's father bought a flat in Mundesley and asked then 17-year-old Jeremy to paint it. He agreed, provided two friends could help. 

After the week-long job, villagers began asking the young men to carry out small jobs at their homes and gardens, prompting the company to be set up.
