Empowering Young South Asian Girls: Celebrating iMatterToo Completion with London Design & Engineering UTC Students

As the curtains draw on another empowering chapter, we're thrilled to celebrate the successful completion of the 'iMatterToo' programme with London Design and Engineering UTC College. Over the past 12 weeks, we embarked on a transformative journey, empowering young South Asian girls with the tools, knowledge, and support they need to navigate life's challenges and embrace their full potential.

At the heart of the 'iMatterToo' programme lies a commitment to nurturing personal growth and fostering cultural understanding. We recognize the unique challenges young South Asian girls face, from navigating cultural identity to addressing generational trauma within their families. Through a combination of storytelling, role play, art therapy, and group discussions, participants delved deep into their cultural heritage and explored avenues for personal growth.

One of the key pillars of the 'iMatterToo' programme is empowerment through collaboration. By providing a safe and supportive space for participants to share their experiences, challenges, and aspirations, we fostered a sense of community and solidarity. Through one-to-one peer support, group activities, and collaborative problem-solving, participants not only gained valuable insights but also formed lasting bonds with their peers.

As we bid farewell to the 'iMatterToo' programme at London Design and Engineering UTC College, we do so with immense pride and optimism for the future. The impact of this transformative journey extends far beyond the walls of the classroom, shaping the lives of participants and empowering them to embrace their unique identities, pursue their dreams, and create positive change in their communities.

The success of the 'iMatterToo' programme is a testament to the power of collaboration, resilience, and collective action. As we look ahead, we remain committed to empowering young South Asian girls across Newham and beyond, ensuring that they have the tools and support they need to thrive.

Join us in celebrating the remarkable achievements of the participants of the 'iMatterToo' programme at London Design and Engineering UTC College. Together, we've embarked on a journey of empowerment, growth, and transformation, and the impact of our collective efforts will continue to ripple far into the future. Here's to the next chapter of empowerment, resilience, and success!
