The Young Citizens are a group of self selecting and self determining young people from Prendergast Ladywellfields College. Founded in 2009 there are now over 200 Young Citizens.

We are positive and proud young people seeking ways to become involved with our community. We work with our Mayors, MP's, Cllrs, London schools, the MET, religious leaders and other community groups.

We are proud supporters of the Jimmy Mizen Foundation and London Citizens, with whom we are working to introduce the City Safe Haven and the Living Wage campaigns to Lewisham and London.
