Hi I'm Ellie, Young People's Regeneration Champion at Room 42.
I am passionate about supporting care experienced young people to achieve high and have the best support and services available. My passion comes from my own experiences as a care leaver and growing up in the care system.
I believe there is nothing more powerful than care leavers advocating for themselves and using their voices to be heard and to shape services.
My aspiration is to become a qualified barrister, and I am currently on my journey to becoming one, but for now I love working with and supporting young people on their journeys.
I have 2 pets, a hamster called "hammy" and a chihuahua called "girly". I really enjoy hiking/walking and holidays!! My favourite season is Summer. I enjoy going to the gym, keeping fit and healthy and giving back to charity and communities. I really encourage young people to get involved as it brings so many benefits.
