About Me

Hi! Im a 20 year old Scot, from Glasgow living and working in Dundee.
I was trained as a peer leader by an amazing project called Roars not Whispers in Jan 07, and since then Ive made activism my life!
I am chair of a multi award winning NGO called Youth End Poverty (Yep) Dundee, which works to raise awareness of poverty in the UK, as well as training marginalised young people to fight poverty.
I am also director of an international gay rights organisation called the LGBT Network, which provides strong leadership and activism on LGBT and HIV issues. It is open to all around the world who are fed up with homophobia, but also having the gay groups in their country not standing up for the community.
I co-ordinate a project that is aiming to educate young people in Scotland on the MDG's, you can help by checking out http://tigurl.org/g3enao
