Elizabeth

Elizabeth, an 18-year-old youth activist from Rochdale, is dedicated to tackling violence against women and girls (VAWG) and empowering young people. Growing up in one of the most deprived areas in Greater Manchester, she saw firsthand the need for change.

She founded Allyship, a youth-led project supported by Greater Manchester Police, delivering workshops in primary and high schools to challenge misogyny, toxic masculinity, and gender inequality. As a UK ambassador for the European Network of Regional and Local Youth Platforms (ENRYP) and a member of the GM Gender-Based Violence Strategy Board, she is influencing education and policy on gender equality.
