JOIN THE BATTLEFRONT

I have been spending a lot of time online researching various online societies within London. I wasn’t looking for specific groups and thus found a range of interesting people, ideas, networks and ideals, which people have joined and helped grow it to sizable ‘organisations’ and ‘societies’. One of them has recently been featured in Channel 4’s Battlefront program. Currently living in London the following issue is something that can affect us all.

Battlefront is the name of a C4 series which allows youths to campaign against anything that they feel is destroying our ‘youth culture’. Alex Rose is one of the campaigners. I met this guy a little while back in the summer when he was spreading ‘the word’ for his campaign. I remember having a brief chat and leaving the discussion impressed by his determination. He has made quiet an impact to date; having been featured on channel 4 and having met Archbishop Tutu, who also is a Nobel peace prize winner, has given him the final backing to create a charity. So spread the word. Check out Battlefront. Show some support where you can.
