about The Team

Youth Engagement Officer

Becca Annoh

Becca joined RECLAIM in January and has been spearheading "The Working Classroom" by delivering online sessions focusing on soft skills and wellbeing for young people. She has delivered webinars and podcasts in partnership with Student Space to explore university students' experiences whilst being working class and the intersections attached to the latter. In addition, the English Speaking Board has partnered with RECLAIM to offer oracy qualifications with Becca as a practitioner.

​

Passionate about justice and equality, Becca hopes that through her work with RECLAIM young people will be empowered to become advocates in their community and that their voices will always be amplified. In her spare time, you will find her going to live gigs, cooking great food and exploring beaches!

Supporter Engagement & Communications Officer

Kirsten Graver

Kirsten is committed to supporting RECLAIM’s young people through running our digital platforms, working on campaigns and building our networks to provide more opportunities to make space for working class representation. With a background in environmental campaigns, Kirsten understands the lack of working-class representation in environmental activism but also in campaigning as a whole. Outside of work, she enjoys starting new creative projects and is currently working on her embroidery.
