3 years, 2 months agoFixers - a generation of young people, aged 16-25, fixing the issues that fire them up, however they choose.
An award-winning project, we have already supported over 22,000 young people to have an authentic voice in their community across the UK. Fixers take action on a huge range of issues - from alcohol abuse to anorexia, from autism to cyber-bullying, and depression to gang culture.
Fixers create high-quality resources – including films, websites and printed materials – to make their voices heard. They then share them with other young people, employers, practitioners, policy makers and service providers.
Fixers' stories have attracted major media interest, both nationally and locally, while a relationship with ITV and UTV sees Fixers appear on regional news programmes every month in peak time slot. Our expanding social media channels give Fixers another powerful way to get their voices heard.
We work with local and national voluntary organisations, businesses and services to ensure Fixers' messages are heard by as many people as possible. These organisations often go on to use Fixers’ resources to reach out to other people facing similar issues, and Fixers frequently meet with MPs and other influential individuals who can help them get heard by an even bigger audience.
