Sophia Kichou is now blogging for the Amy Winehouse Foundation. Here are a few words about her:

‘I was once a young person living at Centrepoint, and have been a member of the Centrepoint Youth Parliament for 3 years, which has involved working with MP’s and several national campaigns. I recently won Best News Coverage of the year at the Creative Diversity Network Awards for my piece raising awareness about youth homelessness. I am currently a full time student studying Journalism at City University.
‘Through this blog I hope to tell the stories of those who wouldn’t usually be given a voice, and to raise awareness about the plight facing vulnerable young people affected by homelessness and substance misuse. I will also tell you about all the cool things that the Amy Winehouse Foundation are doing!’

About the Amy Winehouse Foundation

In Amy’s memory, we work to inspire children and young people to build their self-esteem and resilience, so that they can flourish.

Our work is inspired by Amy’s spirit, her love of children and the challenges that she faced in her own life.

Today, the Amy Winehouse Foundation helps thousands of young people to feel supported and informed so that they are better able to manage their emotional wellbeing and make informed choices around things that can affect their lives.

We’re able to do this because of the support we receive from people like you. Anyone who believes in young people can become a part of our work and Amy’s legacy. By supporting our work, you will help them to transform their lives, flourish and be heard.
