#iwill: Becoming Young Mayor of Liverpool

Since participating in the LFC Foundation's #iwill campaign, Lucia Akwanya, a pupil at Whitefield Primary School, has become very passionate about social action and making a positive difference in her local community.

Lucia has taken a leading role within LFC Foundation #iwill classroom activities, along with a number of social action projects outside of school, with a focus on reducing pollution, drug and alcohol awareness and social isolation amongst the elderly.

The 10 year old's dedication to helping others and making a difference in her local area led to her first being elected on to her school council, before she was then nominated by the deputy head at her school and selected to take up the role of Young Mayor of Liverpool.
