Raising the aspirations of young people has been an ever-increasing issue as there are numbers of young people who need the support and encouragement as well the extra push to aim high. Some young people struggle with low self-esteem and often need role models and people who can mentor and support them. Teaming up with Olympics Rower Gillian Lindsey I coordinated an event at a local estate outside London to help support young people gain skills such as leadership and public speaking skills. It was also a great opportunity for those who participated to hear about some experiences on how to stay motivated to reach their goals.
