Watch this:
It is the UN International Day of the Girl. The video tells you all you need to know about what it’s like to be a girl.
I know the scale of the problems in the world can feel overwhelming. I take to my bed more often than I care to admit but I don’t, and you don’t, have to fix it all. Pick just one of the issues raised in this film and do something. You can learn more, donate, volunteer, become an advocate, lobby your MP, protest. There is so much you can do.
If none of the issues in this video hit home for you, that’s fine. Find something that does and get involved with that. Anything you can do to make the world a better place counts.
