About us
Who we are
Taking our lead from global TED, we are providing a platform for talented voices from the community itself, London and beyond. Ideas will come from across sectors - a convergence of ideas connecting people from all backgrounds in a space to be inspired, to learn and to take action.
Vibrant, diverse and divided are some of the words often used to describe Ladbroke Grove. An area where extreme wealth and poverty live cheek by jowl; where Europe’s largest street party is celebrated and the location of one of the UK’s worst humanitarian disasters.
Join us as we celebrate the diversity and strength of community, showcase voices that often go unheard, challenge the status quo through new ideas, and look ahead as we explore the power of humanity, technology and innovation as a means to effect positive social change.
We are a TEDx with soul.
Why volunteer with us?
A large group of volunteers dedicate their time and energy to set up events and build our community, acting as personal ambassadors for change and innovation.
With their professional knowledge and skills, our volunteers bring ideas to life behind the scenes and on the day of our events.
We are a hundred percent volunteer-led organisation, all our events are not subsidised and are run on the enthusiasm of our partners, collaborators and volunteers.
