Hammersmith and Fulham's Youth Takeover Challenge 2019

Alex and Suado from the Thrive LDN team joined a range of organisations at Stamford Bridge, the home of Chelsea F.C., for the 2019 edition of Hammersmith & Fulham’s annual Youth Takeover Challenge event.

It was an opportunity to speak to young people from across the borough about what matters for their health and wellbeing.

Alex and Suado ran a collaborative exercise to source ideas for tackling social isolation, reducing unfair treatment based on identity or background, and improving participation in sports and cultural activities. The ideas and enthusiasm of the young people consulted will help inform Thrive LDN’s work and engagement with local stakeholders.
