An Introduction to FRED

FRED is a youth-led campaign that was set up in 2020 by young people. It is run by young volunteers through social action projects and high quality youth volunteering. It is an independent entity that is hosted by the Restorative Justice for All International Institute.

Our campaign aims to:

  1. Promote the values of Fairness, Respect, Equality and Dignity (FRED), as they impact on young people with a focus on those who tend to me excluded from democratic processes.
  2. Directly support young people through training, internships, advice, volunteering, educational programmes and by engaging them in social action projects.
  3. Dispel stereotypes about young people with an emphasis on those who are at risk of being marginalised, disadvantaged or excluded due to their background, race, mental health, socio-economic status, gender, physical abilities or sexual orientation.
  4. Address “disadvantage thinking” and redistribute power within society, strengthening democracy, the youth-led sector and civil society.

Our Testimonials

“We are delighted to support this youth-led campaign, which finds its origin in young people’s determination to tackle some of the challenges of today’s society, such as the increase of divisions and inequalities. Spreading the principles of restorative justice, the campaign aims at celebrating diversity, as a great strength that brings us together”

“The FRED campaign is a testament of our young peoples’ determination for a change. We often blame them for apathy, but this youth-led initiative proves the opposite. I am delighted to support FRED and look forward to the 2020 FRED Awards celebrating 400 years since the sailing of the Mayflower from our local area, taking some of the first migrants to America”

“I am so happy I have the opportunity to volunteer for this project! It is incredible to me to think that so many people are benefitting from these activities, and for me to be able to open the doors to other young people to become the best version of themselves is extremely gratifying.”

Restoring the importance of the way we live

As individuals, we often manage to disregard our attitudes to the way we live. How do we live? Yet we go on to question our misfortune when we inevitably gain a little more weight or get just that little bit less in an exam. Little actions like picking McDonalds over the home cooked food or soda over water contribute to the momentous change that is inevitable. This is simply not a misfortune! We must learn to claim responsibility for our actions and the impact they have on us. Our actions determine our own future, so it is time to claim our future by changing the way we live; changing our bad habits. The ones that impact us all.
