“I wanted to become an Anne Frank Ambassador to challenge the bad things happening in the world and inspire others to stand up against prejudice. Being an Ambassador has made me more confident and helped me to speak out, whether that’s standing up for a Year 7 student being bullied at school or educating people about the harm caused by discrimination. Through the Trust, I’ve had life-changing experiences, like visiting the Anne Frank House and meeting Holocaust survivors. In Ambleside, I wrote a poem about the healing power of nature for the Windermere Children and how damaging prejudice can be. The sessions and workshops have taught me that innocent people suffer because of hatred, and we must all speak out against injustices. Before becoming an Ambassador, I might have stayed quiet. Now, I know I can make a difference. The Windermere trip showed me how strongly I feel about people being free to be themselves without judgment. Being part of the Anne Frank Trust has connected me with like-minded friends and given me the confidence to believe that even small actions can create change. It’s inspired me to keep challenging prejudice and make a difference in the future.  ”
