My real life G’s dem.

IRL tings. Proper wholesome. Full circle moments. Offline connection. Knowledge exchange. Magic. Bridging gaps across age, race, gender and perspectives. Removing pedestals. Support system exploration (and development?) Hugs. Smiles. Thoughts. Feelings. Shared. Safely.

Introducing your team for @Your Service this Saturday at Brighton Youth Centre for @brightonfestival 2026.

Jordan Stephens is an artist, author, performer and mental health advocate whose work has consistently opened up space for more honest conversations about masculinity, mental health, creativity and care. Many people will know him from @rizzlekicks but today we’re also holding the full arc of his work: from Brighton youth music spaces and AudioActive, through IAMWHOLE. Jordan joins us as someone whose life and work asks a question at the heart of this event: when the systems around us fall short, what does it really mean to be held? @jordanfstephens

Kaia Allen-Bevan is an award-winning advocate, entrepreneur, and creative, dedicated to social justice and educational reform. Since 2019 (age 16), she has led racial justice and anti-racism work, co-organising Brighton’s BLM demonstrations and founding @officialbrightonblm. Her TEDx talk was featured in Forbes Morocco for its “global impact.” She is Director of Engagement and Impact at Edge Of Difference and was named Brighton Girl of the Year 2025. She founded YouthTheGapCIC in 2024, earning multiple awards @kaia.ab @youththegap

Bobby Brown is a cultural leader and digital innovator working across technology, youth development, and the arts. With over a decade of experience, he focuses on equity, community-led change, and access to creative opportunities. As Programme Lead for Future Creative Leaders at Lighthouse, he has designed programmes that centre youth voice, decentralise leadership, and open pathways into creative industries. @btsbobby
