James - young trustee

James

Young trustees

My role as a young trustee is to help voice what young people think and believe in. I want to see a future where young people are more accepted and appreciated for the work they do and not pushed aside. This is what motivates me to do the work I do with The Children's Society. 

To me hope means looking for a better tomorrow that eventually things will work out. Hope is important because sometimes you need a little something to help inspire you to keep going and fighting for what you believe in

As a Young Trustee, I hope to offer insight into problems from a young person's perspective. I I hope to get the opportunity to grow on my personal skills and make positive change. Hope to me is seeing room for change and having the desire to change it.It's also about being optimistic so you are able to dream for a bigger and better future.

And to me, hope means still having a future despite the adversities that I have witnessed. Hope is a reason to wake up and fight my demons
