Our aims are as follows:SOCIAL CHANGE:For marginalised young people to recognise they have the individual and collective power to make change and are actively contributing towards the betterment of society. AMPLIFIED VOICES:For the voices of marginalised young people to be amplified, acknowledged and influential throughout society.
