Ahead of the festive break a group of fifteen local youths who frequent the Foundation’s activities and programmes at Bridgestone Arena took part in a community clean up, giving back to their community centre and neighbourhood.
This social action initiative is one of many such climate schemes organised by JRF and local partners including Hyde Housing and Brent Council over the last few years, inspiring local young people and adults to take action and be responsible for the area in which they live.
Over the years JRF have been active in green and environmental activities including community clean ups, education, enhancing green spaces and creating a ‘Green squad’ Youth Board that take part in environmental taskforce conversations.
Training was conducted by Ilaria of “Start Easy” a specialist in environmental training and green programmes.
The youths who gave up their time to get involved in the initiative were rewarded with a well-earned meal at a local grill restaurant.
