Age: 23
Year of the Fix: 2015
Location: Croydon, London
Campaign: To encourage young people not to give in to peer pressure

We feel that young people can be tempted down the wrong path in life if they give in to peer pressure.

It can lead to destructive behaviour – such as bullying, smoking and drug abuse.

These are decisions that can have lifelong consequences, and by the time a young person wants to change the outcome of their actions, it could be too late.

With Fixers, we want to encourage others to think carefully before following the crowd.

We want young people to take a positive direction in life, and we want the older generation to lead by example.

Here is a list of Fixers helping me with this Fix:

L&Q

 

For over 50 years, L&Q has been driven by its mission to create places where people want to live.  A leading housing association, it owns or manages more than 71,000 homes across London and the South East - making it one of the largest residential landlords in the capital.  L&Q invests in people and the communities it serves and over the coming year, through the L&Q Foundation, it will invest £7 million on community initiatives, helping residents improve their life chances.

 

L&Q is working in partnership with Fixers because we recognise the positive contribution that our young residents can and do make to their communities, and we are keen to give them the right support to do this. To see the Fixer projects we have funded to date please click on the links provided. 

 

“Fixers is an exciting opportunity to empower young people  to make positive changes, within their communities and raise awareness of issues that affect L&Q’s young residents.” Paul Nehra, L&Q’s Community Investment Manager.
