'Where fashion changes more than your wardrobe: it chaanges lives!'

October will profile past leaders of ch4nge! be inspired!!

'THOSE WHO HAVE NO RECORD OF WHAT THEIR FORBEARERS HAVE ACCOMPLISHED LOSE THE INSPIRATION FOR CHANGE THAT COMES WITH THE TEACHING OF HISTORY' DR CARTER GEORRGE WOODSON.

IF WE ARE TO TRULY MOVE FORWARD WITH CONVICTION FOR CH4NGE, ITS WORTH TAKING A LOOK BACK AT PAST LEADERS OF CHANGE TO SEE WHAT WE CAN LEARN FROM THEM!

This October is dedicated to those leaders who were not only asked the question: 'if you could change one thing in the world what would it be? but responded to the call

This will act as a prelude to the 'Ch4nge in 60 second videos' which will be launched in November and will profile modern day people passionate about change.

The change factory has expanded immensely and October/November will see the arrival of many new faces!!! bloggers, editors, film makers etc

be inspired!!!!

Is CHANGE IMPOSSIBLE?

Hey World Changers,

Thanks to all those who responded to the blog: 'If you could change 1 thing in the world what would it be?' we had some great responses such as:

'I would like to ch4nge the lives of families that have been broken'

'Make everyone know their purpose for living'


'I would change child social issues, in particular ensuring that ALL children (globally) receive a just and fair opportunity at being educated'


If you didn't have time to respond not to worry, you can still send it in or alternatively take a minute to pause and to answer it to yourself personally.

In response to what you would like to see changed, ask yourself:

is change possible? or impossible?

yes/no? change is (im)possible when you....tell us in ONE word or ONE sentence how its possible or not.
e.g. your word might be 'unite' or your sentence could be 'open your eyes'


Comments will be used anonymously for a CH4NGE video series we are launching soon so watch this space......

Looking forward to your responses!!

Volunteering Opportunities

Hi World Changers,

Please find below a list of current volunteering opportunities we have.

Our vision is simple: To change lives. We believe change is possible and real change starts with action!

We want to change the lives of orphans all around the world empowering them and giving them opportunities to be all they can be while providing for their basic needs as well. We don’t believe education should be a luxury for the rich, we believe it is a right. We also want to work with faith leaders and young people in the UK and inspire and empower them to actively tackle social injustice and poverty.

The number of children across the world that have lost both parents to HIV is 15 million that’s more than all the children in the UK. Are they destined for a life of poverty? NO! We believe change IS possible!!!

This is an exciting time of expansion for us. To get involved simply email us stating the role(s) you are interested in and your phone number and we will call you to have an informal chat.
