Andrew Short, Lambeth’s elected Member of Youth Parliament, attended an Awards ceremony today to celebrate the work of young people campaigning to make positive changes within their communities.
The Shiela McKechnie ‘Shout Out!’ Awards were held in St Martin in the Fields Church in Trafalgar Square, central London, and hosted by famous Channel 4 Newsreader, John Snow.
And although he didn’t win an award for his campaign to reduce the cost of train and tube travel for young people, Andrew was placed as a Runner Up and will receive a grant, and campaign training from an industry professional.
Andrew said: “It was a great day, and I can’t wait for the campaign training event. I think it will go a long way in helping me to achieve my goals for the campaign. I am sure the grant will be useful too!’
