Lucy Thomas

Co-Founder/Co-CEO

Project Rockit

Lucy has dedicated her whole life to challenging bullying, hate and prejudice and empowering school students to do the same. Lucy and her sister Rosie co-founded the social enterprise, “PROJECT ROCKIT” when they were fresh out of high school and sick of seeing the impacts of bullying. 15 years on, PROJECT ROCKIT has reached over 500,000 school students and grown into Australia’s youth-driven movement against (cyber)bullying. PROJECT ROCKIT's work has been honoured by UNICEF, the global Family Online Safety Institute, and Lucy has been awarded an Order of Australia Medal for her service to youth.

About Project Rockit
PROJECT ROCKIT creates spaces where all young people have access to respect, acceptance, creative expression and real leadership skills. We send highly trained, passionate young presenters into schools to run workshops that empower students to lead positive change at school, online and beyond.
