'Find Your Power is kindly funded by The People's Postcode Lottery and is part of a national project called Surviving to Thriving. Surviving to Thriving is a partnership between British Red Cross, the Refugee Council and UpRising that aims to improve the lives of unaccompanied refugee and asylum seeking children and young people. As part of this project, children and young people can learn about their rights and entitlements with British Red Cross, take part in therapeutic co...unselling with Refugee Council and explore change making with UpRising.
Young people that take part in Find Your Power explore issues that affect them and work alongside a professional filmmaker to create films that will be used by British Red Cross, in order to educate and train professionals across the country.'
Check out this incredible video, Dreams, which came from the Find Your Power project!
