Croydon’s Choose Your Future campaign is driven by young people. It asks you to think about the choices you make – whether it’s about carrying a knife, looking after yourself, or your goals.
During this pandemic, we are still dedicated to supporting our young people to make positive choices, and providing you with the help and opportunities you need. Now more than ever, self-care and good mental and emotional well-being are important for you, your friends and family.
