Symeon Brown

Appeared on the Olympics Special - Wednesday 18th July 2012

Symeon doesn’t need any “hype”. He is already co-founder of (HYPE – get it?), which aims to improve youth and community relations and give young people a stake in the democratic process.

Symeon was a senior researcher on The Guardian’s in-house study. Describing himself as an ’activist/writer on youth, justice and urbanism’, he’s written interesting pieces on why the riots happened and how society can be rebuilt.

Passionate and keen to have his voice heard, he’ll settle in well on the panel.
