Visiting Parliament
Our Young Ambassadors have been involved in numerous campaign launches in Westminster, including meeting MPs and delivering keynote speeches.
Delivering speeches
Young Ambassador, Miracle, took part in our Power of Partnerships event in 2025 - an event held to celebrate our incredible corporate partners and their work with us.
Miracle delivered a speech to our partners and shared her experience of Action for Children's support.
Leading interviews
Young Ambassador, Rachel, spoke with Love Islanders Kai and Sanam about the UK care system. Her conversation with them later became a blog hosted on our website.
Magazine features
One of our Young Ambassadors, Chan, did a Q&A feature in John Lewis' internal magazine, the Gazette.
She also wrote a blog for the Action for Children website on the Hidden Cost of Play for children in poverty.
