Peer Action Collective. 

 

 

Supported by funding from the Youth Endowment Fund, the #iwill Fund (a collaboration between The National Lottery Community Fund and the Department for Culture, Media and Sport) and Co-op, PAC stands as a beacon for young people, guiding them to take charge and encourage change. 

 

Comprising Peer Researchers, Social Action Leads, and Changemakers, PAC pioneers a revolutionary approach. Drawing from their own experiences of violence, young members identify areas for improvement in their neighbourhoods and translate these insights into tangible actions. 

 

Their initiatives range from shaping school policies and enhancing local mental health services to co-creating strategies for violence reduction and facilitating youth employment opportunities. Together, they ensure that the voices of young people resonate in addressing issues that impact them directly. 

 

Currently, 3 Peer Researchers alongside the Tigers Trust are dedicated to making a positive difference in their community. They collaborate closely with other CCO's to conduct research on youth violence and foster constructive activities. 

 

Since the launch in 2021, PAC has seen over 6,800 young people across the country taking on the issues affecting their local communities and creating solutions. Over the next five years PAC will impact the lives of over 11,000 young people in England and Wales through peer research and social action.
