Our Aim: To network local youth organisations and promote a voice for young people in and around BSE.

We will…

• … listen to young people / Let young people have their say
• … turn words into actions
• … keep young people updated on what we are doing
• … network local youth organisations
• … promote and represent the views of these young people
• … promote the rights of young people

To Achieve this we:

• Talk with young people - Listen
• Work co-operatively with relative organisations
• Conduct research
• Involve young people
• Work in reference to The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC), especially article 12.

We are aimed mostly at young people aged 13-19 years, although we hope to support those up to 25. We welcome anyone and do our best to support the needs of our members. To be a member you must either live, or spend most of your time (working, going to school or socialising), within about 15 miles of Bury St Edmunds.
