Wolverhampton Young Citizen 2022 Finalist – Ramandeep Nijjar

Ramandeep was recognised for her display of an outstanding level of kindness and commitment to helping others. 

As a volunteer with the Midland Langar Seva Society, a charity for the homeless, she has supported some of the most vulnerable in the local community. 

During Covid she was involved in the ”Spreading Kindness” project, regularly sending letters and pieces of artwork to elderly residents in care homes, helping them to feel less alone during those difficult times.

As an anti-bullying ambassador at Wolverhampton Girl's High School Ramandeep has helped develop projects around the positive use of social media, how to deal with peer pressure and positivity challenges in order to support the mental health and well-being of students. She has also led and assisted with several fund raising events in school to support Save the Children, Islamic Relief and the Ukraine DEC appeal.
