Lewisham ENOUGH! Launch
At an event packed with young people, the ENOUGH! campaign was launched in Lewisham on November 20th. Over 150 people came together to enjoy powerful performances of drama, song and poetry by young people on the theme of youth violence and a no-holds-barred debate with Acting Chief Inspector BJ Harrington, campaigner and author Duwayne Brooks and the young people from the borough. Many signed up to support ENOUGH! and pledge their commitment to 'Make Youth Violence History'.
ENOUGH! meet with Yvette Cooper MP
On 5 May, The Rt Hon Yvette Cooper MP, Chief Secretary to the Treasury, met with representatives of the ENOUGH! campaign and young people from youth organisations in Lambeth, Southwark and Lewisham. The meeting was held to discuss funding which will be released as a result of the Dormant Bank and Building Society Accounts Act. ENOUGH! believes that this money should be safeguarded for existing grassroots organisations who have the proven skills and experience to deliver quality youth services. Ms Cooper agreed to pass on the campaign's recommendations to the working group deciding the criteria for funding applications.
