Take Up Space encourages young people to share their experiences with others and recognise that you are not alone.
Throughout this project, we focus on topics that are sometimes hard to talk about, like mental health and wellbeing, sexual wellbeing, healthy relationships.
“Taking up space is reclaiming the narrative that was written for me. I am many things, and I will continue to be!”
Najma Sambul, Freelance Journalist, Writer and Community Advocate

- Develop the skills and awareness to maintain healthy relationships with friends, family, colleagues, the community – and yourself

Lev Lu, Mental Health Worker and Transgender Rights Advocate
