About Us
Levern Spencer
Levern Spencer is currently the Saint Lucian national, Caricom, and North & Central America and Caribbean high jump record holder. She is undoubtedly Saint Lucia’s most accomplished track and field athlete and a sporting pioneer and role model for all Saint Lucians. She has gone where once upon a time, Saint Lucian athletes would only have dreamt of going, thereby opening doors for others. She has shown through her achievements that despite being from a small nation, we can achieve big things.

YOUTH IN ACTION
Conversations about racism and discrimination are important not just because they are current but because of the impact they can have for our future. A big thank you to Benjamin Jn Paul aged 10 for sharing and reminding us all to take a breath reflect and consider how we can be part of the solutions.
