In the latest in our ‘Meet the CLT Board’ series, here’s our youngest board member, Bradley Barrett, in his own words…
“Hello, I’m Bradley; I am 21 years old and I grew up in Aintree and then moved to Kirkdale in my early teenage years. I have a background in community and youth engagement and I am currently studying BA Architecture at University of The Arts, London.
After leaving school in 2015, I struggled to decide how to turn my passions into a career. It was in 2018, shortly after joining Homebaked to work on the development of the flat and ‘HomeSquare’ that I finally had my ‘Aha!’ moment: I realised I wanted to become an architect. After 18 months of nurturing and support from Homebaked, I applied and was accepted on to a Foundation Diploma in Art and Design at Central Saint Martins Art School in London – and stayed in London to study for my BA.
Since being in London, I felt disconnected from my community and the CLT. I wanted a way to give something back and still be a part of the organisation, so I applied to be a board member – and was voted in in December!
I am honoured to be on the board, working with the amazing team to #gettheterracedone!
