We believe that young people should be at the heart of the discussion of youth issues. 

Youth Voices provides a platform for young people to engage with practitioners, heads of youth services and commissioners to share unique insights and best practices. This is a chance to be a part of the co-creation movement as we look at how we can work in partnership to tackle important social problems.

This month we are looking at how to engage young people in politics. Young people show a clear distrust in formal politics, with only 12% of young people set to vote in 2015. Why does a generation who are more connected and engaged through social media than any other, and who have current affairs at their fingertips; not feel politics is accessible to them? How can we make youth voices heard in politics?

Come join us for coffee and croissants and a chance to discuss how we can take a cocreation approach to empower young people to lobby for change.
