Q&A with Jess

What has been your highlight during your time as a YA?

Meeting all the other YAs and spending time with them

Why did you apply to be part of the YA Delivery Team?

I found it really inspiring during the conferences to see the impact that the Delivery Team made and I wanted to be a part of that. 

What advice would you give to a young person considering Young Ambassadors?

Definitely go for it! Its a great opportunity to make a difference in your school. 

What is your favourite sport?

Swimming or netball

What is your proudest achievement (outside of Young Ambassadors)? 

I love teaching swimming lessons as it makes me so proud to see kids who used to be scared of water find love for swimming. 

What are your future aspirations?

I want to go on to study architecture after school and design buildings. Also continue the sports I love recreationally.
