My work experience with GLA and Motivez was filled with a time of true insight and confirmation of my interest in politics in the future. Everyone showed me hospitality and I felt like I was part of the team!
My time at City Hall was spent with interesting tasks like researching influencers who represent sustainability and having meetings with different companies and branches of the GLA. Being in a such a peaceful and supportive environment was truly amazing.
A highlight of this experience was meeting the Mayor of London, Sir Sadiq Khan, for a 2nd time! Also, meeting the Mayor of Housing and Land, Tom Copley, really showed how effectively the Mayor's office works to support London.
