Stephen Lawrence Day

Stephen Lawrence Day is an opportunity for people, communities, and organisations to come together and honour Stephen’s life and legacy, stand up against discrimination in our daily lives, and work towards a more hopeful tomorrow. Through reflection, learning, and action, we can inspire change and create a better future for the next generation.

Our Vision and Mission

The Stephen Lawrence Day Foundation exists to inspire a more equitable, inclusive society and to foster opportunities for marginalised young people in the UK.

We work in:

Classrooms
To inspire children to dream freely without barriers and to realise the importance of learning to attaining those dreams.

Communities
To support and create new connections within all types of communities.

Careers
To give marginalised young people access to professional opportunities across a wide range of sectors and industries.

Our Impact

The Stephen Lawrence Day Foundation is committed to creating a fairer society in which all young people, regardless of their background, have the opportunity to flourish. By providing mentoring, coaching, work experience opportunities, and bursaries for education and training, the Foundation broadens young people’s view of what’s possible, and creates pathways into education and career opportunities which might not otherwise be open to them. The Foundation empowers young people with the knowledge, skills, and qualifications they need to pursue the career of their choice, and supports them to progress along their chosen path.

Here are some creative ideas for how you can get involved:

  • Non-Uniform Day - Organising a non-uniform day is a simple and fun way to get involved in Stephen Lawrence Day. Encourage students and teachers to wear something that celebrates their individuality and what makes them unique. Donations from the non-uniform day could go towards supporting the Stephen Lawrence Day Foundation's work in promoting equity and social justice. Ask for pay-what-you-can donations rather than a fixed amount to ensure that everyone can participate.
  • Reading Challenge - Invite your classmates to select and read six books that explore social justice and celebrate diversity. Students who complete the challenge will receive a certificate or digital badge and a bookmark about Stephen’s story. Find out more here.
  • Spread the word - Help to spread the word about Stephen Lawrence Day and its key messages of hope and equality, by sharing Stephen's story, in order to build awareness and inspire change. Ask your teachers to include information on the Stephen Lawrence Day Foundation in the school’s newsletter, website, parent forums, and social media.
  • Make a Pledge on social media - If we each commit to taking one action on Stephen Lawrence Day that will positively impact the lives of young people from marginalised backgrounds, together we can honour Stephen's life and legacy, and build a fairer, kinder and more equitable society in his name. It’s time to make your #StephenLawrenceDayPledge . You could use the following copy as the basis for your pledge: "This Stephen Lawrence Day I pledge to (insert your pledge here)to make sure the next 30 years look different from the last. #stephenlawrencedaypledge” .
