Our Team

Our Team Members

LPAC team members lead research to understand issues affecting young people, identify what needs to change and bring people together to take action around common concerns.

“I firmly believe in empowering people to be counted, especially those whose voices are typically muffled, and I am motivated by the opportunity to cause those voices to count by turning them into tangible, real action.”

Alanis

Helping young people has always been important to me, and this role allows me to turn research into a real call to action for change.

“My work as an LPAC team member is important because young people should be the ones deciding our own futures. Once I knew the problems I, and many others in our area, faced wasn’t normal, I wanted to make some change.”

As a young person I know how difficult it is to adapt to an area like Lambeth where it is not very safe. As a teenager who emigrated to a new country, I know how difficult it is to be accepted and so I want to make a difference.

“Growing up there wasn’t many spaces for me and my friends to enjoy ourselves without there being some negative consequences. My skills as a team player have improved as I’ve been able to work with a group of smart and unique young people.”

Olivia

I am passionate about youth violence and trying to find ways to prevent it. Being in LPAC makes me feel like I have the voice and ability to make a change, to fight for existing youth services that help hundreds of young people daily.”

Raheel

“I believe using our voices as young people is the way to ensure we are empowered and have access to the correct tools to shape the future we are deserving of as young people. This role enables me to work with others on the same mission.”

Over time I have seen youth services shut down or decline in my area, leaving young people unsupported.
