About Us

Lambeth Peer Action Collective (LPAC) is made up of young people and youth organisations, working together to create better futures for young people in Lambeth. Young people take the lead in identifying, researching and taking action on issues that affect them.

They do this through:

  • Youth-led research to better understand the experiences of young people in Lambeth and the actions that need to be taken.
  • Empowering young people to act as a collective in response to research findings.
  • Working with those in positions of power to enact change that directly benefits young people in Lambeth.
  • Reflecting on the change achieved and where action still needs to be taken or where better research is needed.
