“Having completed the Teens and Toddlers programme 10 years ago, and Power2 having such a positive impact on my life, I couldn’t be any prouder to have been chosen as a trustee. I love the wider impact Power2 can have on young people even outside of their service users. Power2 reacts quickly to changing circumstances which showed in the extra support they provided for young people during the Covid-19 pandemic, particularly on mental wellbeing.

I’m excited to work alongside others, who also believes in the work of Power2 to deliver real results to improve the lives of young people.”
