If elected, I will focus on three key areas: raising awareness about the dangers of vaping, promoting the importance of education, and ensuring young people are fairly represented in decision-making processes.
Raising Awareness About the Consequences of Vaping
Vaping is a growing issue among young people in our community, and its consequences are often overlooked. I will work to launch initiatives that educate our peers about the dangers of vaping, focusing on the long-term impact it has on health, addiction, and overall well-being. Through campaigns, workshops, and partnerships with local health organisations, I aim to spread the message that we deserve better than the harmful habits that may seem trendy now but could hurt us in the future.
Emphasising the Importance of Education
Education is the key to our success. As young people, we must be encouraged to reach our full potential, and this starts with access to quality education. I will work to highlight the value of both academic and personal growth, ensuring that we are not only academically equipped but also prepared for the challenges of the world beyond school. By collaborating with schools and educators, I will advocate for programs that help us thrive in all aspects of learning.
Fair Representation of Young People
Our voices matter, and I believe it’s essential for young people to be included in conversations about the issues that affect us. As a member of the Enfield Youth Council, I will ensure that we are heard and that our opinions shape local decisions. Being elected is a fantastic opportunity for me to further my passion for youth leadership and to make a real difference in our community.
With my past experiences as a school ambassador and deputy house captain, I’ve developed the skills needed to lead and represent others. I am ready to bring that leadership to the Youth Council and fight for what matters most to us. Together, we can build a brighter, healthier future for the youth of Enfield.
