A BLACKBURN teenager will be making a difference in her community after joining the ‘Action for Change’ advocacy network set up by Girlguiding.
Alice Sturzaker, 16, took part a three-day event at Waddow Hall in Clitheroe this month.
She wants to develop a campaign to challenge the stigma surrounding mental health.
Alice said: “I hope the understanding of mental health is increased and that young people feel more comfortable in talking to others about their issues.”
