Being a young female in the world today is a challenge. With the current climate and covid pandemic, trying to forge a pathway to employment or further education whilst dealing with society pressures from social media, families, peer pressure and bullying, it is near impossible, and there is a real lack of positive, strong female role models today. To make matters worse young women can also be challenged by difficulties at home and are often caring for younger siblings, dealing with addiction issues or aggression at home.

This is leading to a generation of teenage girls low self esteem, confidence issues, eating disorders, promiscuity and teen pregnancies, self-harming, binge-drinking and substance abuse, panic attacks and anxiety, are just some of the symptoms apparent in their behaviour.

Not surprisingly we now have a confused generation, disengaging from education and the world around them which leads to low aspirations, poor body image, low self esteem and a confused identity and no idea how to create a future for themselves.
