“The Future Leaders Programme teaches young people about the importance of democracy and the rule of law and empowers them to be active citizens who lead positive change in their local communities. It engages young people not only to be tolerant of those that may be different, but to celebrate our diversity to make our communities stronger. It was an absolute pleasure to speak to the Future Leaders Programme.”

“The Future Leaders Programme gives young people the opportunity to engage with important concepts such as the Law and Equality in a meaningful and reflective way, so they have a true understanding of where these concepts originate from and why they continue to be so important in our society today. We would certainly welcome engaged and motivated young people such as this to Queen Mary University. It was an absolute pleasure working with the Future Leaders Programme”
