According to a press release, Lauryn gained prominence as an advocate for diversity, inclusion and multicultural education with the publication of her children’s book “Lauryn, That’s Me,” translated into four languages.
“The book promotes a positive representation of black children and greater cultural awareness in the world of children’s literature. But her mission goes beyond writing: Lauryn is also an active promoter of community initiatives, donates books to underprivileged children and works as a speaker, encouraging multilingual education and the appreciation of African heritage through creativity,” she reveals.
During the event, Gareth Bacon, MP for Orpington and guest of honour for the evening, praised the young people being honoured. “It is a moment of immense pride to welcome these extraordinary children to the heart of British democracy. Their achievements are a powerful reflection of what is possible when young talent is recognised and nurtured,” he said.
