My visit with a group of @UnLtd award winners to a dear friend and brother Steven Addison of @boxupcrime I was totally charged and encouraged by his advice to us as #socialentrepreneur his vision for change especially in the area of #youthcrimeprevention #knifecrime. in moving into the #2020 why and what changes do you want to make to impact your community or a life.
Last week, When We Speak welcomed the Write Back group for an evening of exciting activism. Write Back are an incredible organisation that builds self-respect, community and independent voices for young people through the sharing of stories. These stories have a central theme of activism that runs throughout and I encourage everyone to check out their monthly featured pieces at: /writing
We were extremely impressed with the great group of young people that came to Toynbee Hall, who entered with an abundance of enthusiasm and inspiring ideas.
We look forward to continuing the work between Write Back and When We Speak!
Our next workshop is 27th Nov (6-8pm) and will build on researching skills with social impact projects! Join us at E1 6LS.
