How I did it: I was very much against the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq so I researched it as much as possible. During my research, I came across various protests being held and decided to go along. It was an incredible experience, especially the protest I went to in London with 1 million people. The sense of community, a shared goal, and knowing you're actually getting out there and doing something. Instead of just sitting at home thinking about how terrible something is and how you wish there was something you could do, actually do it!

Lessons & tips: Find a cause you truly believe in and research it, you will come across protests scheduled if there are any. If there aren't, do it yourself!
