I begun my journey with helping others in the Ponders End Youth Club where I joined the young leaders program.
Within this new journey I have also obtained a Level 1 mechanics qualification. Till this day I continue to help in the youth centres with mechanics, safeguarding ambassadors and young leaders. I am now ready to expand my abilities further into the community by becoming young mayor.<
If I become young mayor, I will commit to solving issues around the care system, knife crime and mental health for young people in Enfield. These issues have affected myself and others in the care system for years, things like unregulated placements, lack of support from social and care workers creates an unsafe and unsettling environment in which not even a plant could grow let alone a young person. Knife crime is also a priority for me as I unfortunately lost a dear & best friend to this issue and because of this, I want help the community work on its regulation and solutions to knife crime which actually relate too, and benefit young people.
Lastly but honestly the most important issue and often the root of young people’s issues – Mental health. Mental health is something I personally believe is a growing problem in my generation and is affecting my age mates drastically. My goal ultimately is to actively change the narrative, culture and approach to these issues for young people in the community and eventually expand to the whole of London.
