 Denise Dickenson
Trustee, aged 24
'I've been a member since Harmony
In Harlem in 2002 and volunteering since has helped me to grow. As a Trustee
I want to support in various ways, eg performances, and meetings, events and
seminars with the police.'

 Ade Ogundare-Ali
Trustee, aged 24
'I joined Saturday Youth Theatre
at 16 and went on to volunteer. Most recently I was a visual artist in What Does
It Take. Performing arts are about creating experiences... anything is achievable.
Second Wave is a leader in its field and as a Trustee I hope to be an initiator
of change.'

 Kloe Dean
Trainee tutor, aged 18
'Young
people are the future and it's important to hear
what they have to say. Volunteering at Second Wave
has built my confidence to
voice my opinion and contribute my ideas. It
has also given me the drive to be successful in
my career focus, and helped me to support others
as well.'
...........................................................
 Shakira Davis
Volunteer, aged 16
'I
started with the youth theatre
because I wanted to dance.
Now I'm on the Event Crew
helping to support the next
event and other young people.
Second Wave is youth-friendly
and helps young people improve
their skills without any pressure.'
...........................................................
 Creston Hamilton
Volunteer, aged
17
'I
joined Saturday Youth Theatre first and later
the project working with local police. Before
I would never have been able to do it, but
now I've been involved in all sorts of public
events. We're able to go to those in authority
and explain why young people aren't engaging
and how they could change that. And because
of how we present ourselves, they listen.'
...........................................................
 Rachel Osbourne
Youth Arts apprentice,
aged 21
'Volunteering
really picked me up. I feel I've given so little
but received a lot. I joined the Event Crew
supporting the summer production What Does
It Take? Now I am an apprentice, learning skills
in event and centre management.'
...........................................................
 Logic
Trainee Tutor and
lyricist,
aged 20
'As a lyricist I want to reach everyone.
Anything that is worth achieving is worth fighting for through time and effort.
There are not enough organisations like Second Wave. Many young people do not
have the right resources for them to have a chance.'
