Shaverne

Name: Shaverne Farrell
Age: 16
Year of the Fix: 2013
Location: Uxbridge, West London
Campaign: To encourage young people to be confident in who they are

When I was younger, I used to be quite shy and sensitive to things. Sometimes I would cry if I heard bad things said about me or something bad happened. I was quite withdrawn and would feel left out.

 

Then as I got older, I began to come out of my shell. Now I'm past my shyness, but I think a lot of people in school - especially those who feel as if they are different from everyone else - are still hiding away in the shadows.

 

So with Fixers, I've decided to hold an event in my area to bring young people together to showcase their talents.  

I hope this will help them gain confidence, and raise their self-esteem. Everyone is different and can do different things, and that is what makes everyone so interesting and individual. It's time to highlight who we are.

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

Dominik Kochta
Micah Pollard
Dashana McArthur
Zjavica Carty
Dwaynica Greaves
Ismael Musoke

Platform, Islington
The team at Platform supported my Fixers project. I was able to hold my event at the venue free of charge.

Taner Huseyin
Taner supported my Fix by volunteering to help with the sound and lighting on the day of my event.
