The Brixton-based Advocacy Academy is dedicated to preparing young people to bring about social change.

A free academy fellowship gives students the tools, skills and confidence to tackle thorny subjects. Students choose a particular issue to tackle throughout an intense six-month course.

They choose big ones – domestic violence, sexual harassment, racism, body image, bullying, homelessness and mental illness.
