Hey Beautiful People!

I hope you are all well and enjoying the New Year so far. I pray that it will be a year of Favour, Uncommon Testimony and Defiant Joy for all of you. Hold on to God through it all, He is our only constant regardless of what the coming days may bring.

I have a few events coming up that I would like to invite you all to! Please see details below. The events are for both male and female!!!

The London Riots of 2011 highlighted the level of disenfranchisement with young people in London and the rest of the UK. It also highlighted the lack of avenues for young people to voice their concerns and grievances to people in authority. Well here is your opportunity… Lets get talking! Have things really changed since? What more needs to be done going forward? What do you want from your leaders?

We are inviting passionate and opionated young Londoners to join at Parliament for this exciting youth debate. The topics will include:

• How can we enhance youth engagement with authority figures like the police?
• What is Parliament really doing to promote more youth engagement?
• How can young people get thier issues on the policy agenda?
• How the media help reshape youth culture? There will be an opportunity for questions from the floor, followed by drinks, networking and canapés.
