Community and NGO’s
“SW16 is my home and where my projects are born from. I am so aware of the lack of opportunities faced by the youths in South London and the surrounding areas of Brixton, Thornton Heath and Croydon. Having spent much of my life working with hard to reach young people, and 7 years as a Lambeth School Governor highlights their social and educational needs. Hope comes from when young people are able to see the positive change in society that includes them too, no matter the background.”

This Girl Can & Sport England

The This Girl Can campaign reached out to work together but it helped me connect even further with the charities that were donating time for free to support women like me to maintain our wellbeing without cost.
