Year of the Fix: 2018
Location: Rhondda, Wales
Campaign: Helping to reduce the stigma around 'youths'

I am campaigning with Fixers to change the way older people in society view young people. 

 

I have been working with my friends from Ferndale Youth Club to make a film to help people understand us.

 

We do a lot of volunteer work and feel we are sometimes treated unfairly. 

 

Although some people are bad and make trouble - we are not all the same.

 

The Fixers helping me with this fix are:

 

Morgan Thomas

Jack Morris

Georgia Colwill

Naomi Lewis

Chloe Rosedale

Adam Lewis

Thank you to Hayley John from RCT Youth Service for supporting me with this fix!
