Change starts here, change starts now, change starts with us

Brian Paddick was at an event yesterday lunchtime where I accompanied him at the Windsor Fellowship event by the Leadership Enrichment and Diversity Youth Forum.

The key objectives of the LEAD programme were to explore the diverse culture of London by designing and conducting a youth survey and then to lead and manage a community event/forum raising awareness of what youth in London have to say and promoting positive cross cultural activities.

I can only say it was amazing and extremely inspiring. It was a programme for 16-18 year olds who went on a 6 month leadership course.

They also had pledge forms asking people to become role models, I filled mine in and I've agreed to do something to help.

I had the pleasure of meeting some of the Fellows and their families after the presentation, the young people their definitely have some Leaders of the future amongst them - good luck to them all.

They have a blog so you can read more at http://changewithus.blog.co.uk


I also think our Party Leader, Nick Clegg MP needs to meet them and listen to their survey presentation.
