Ferdinand Lyons

I will be campaigning for:

• Keeping youth centre's and sport facilities open
• Opening opportunities for local young people
• Olympic tickets for local young people

We will campaign and fundraise to keep the Atherton and all other leisure and youth centre's open. By keeping youth centre's and sport facilities open we have somewhere to go. We will not be on the streets. We can stay safe and have fun and interesting activities to occupy us.

Opening up more opportunities for us helps us reach our true potential and be as successful as we deserve. I will work with local businesses and employers to increase the chance for us to have proper work experience opportunities, as well as, work shadowing and more apprenticeships. I will also set up events across the borough with successful and influential businesspeople. You will get the opportunity to meet them and find out what you need to do to become as successful as them.

When we first heard that the Olympics were coming to Newham, we were promised many things including free tickets. The only free tickets I see are in the hands of corporate sponsors. We all know this isn't fair. I will organize meetings with Seb Coe and the Olympic Organizing Committee to make sure we get our fair share.
