Growing up in a deprived area such as Enfield was difficult, but I think community is the thing that brings us together. I have proven to be a leader in many aspects. Selecting me as a representative of the youth of our borough would be a great choice as I know how to work with others and strive to benefit them. It would also make me happy knowing I can support the area in which I was raised.
My skills have developed over the years through participating in various events such as performing a written musical piece to my entire school and participating in the Jack Petchey speak out challenge. These experiences have helped me to become an ambitious and confident individual.
I have many ideas which I would like to put forward if elected such as putting funding towards Youth centres within Enfield. My experience within a Youth centre has been positive and helped me develop a sense of belonging.
I feel that the positive mental effect Youth centres can have should be extended to others within the community.
