“Project Change has been established in Croydon by a group of young people who want to overcome the negative stereotypes they feel they face. Their plans so far include a range of events to keep young people occupied over summer, litterpicking events, and supporting elderly and vulnerable people.
What do you think about this venture? Do you think young people have an unfair reputation? What could be done to challenge these stereotypes? Have you got any ideas to help Project Change?”

“Very true Green_System. The media does nothing to help the young persons cause, always prefering to report on the bad rather than the good, believing that's all we the general public are interested in. How about for every negative report you find a positive one, there's plenty out there and I for one am interested.”

“I think the vast majority of young people do have an unfair reputation and are the victims of stereotyping due to the behaviour of a small minority. Great to see this group of young people working together to change that, good luck to them.”
