BANES Youth Forum

A group for anyone aged 11-18 (or up to 25 with additional needs) who’s passionate about getting young people’s voices heard, and making positive change. We meet fortnightly and run projects and campaigns on issues we care about, as well as collaborating with other groups and doing fun activities. It's completely free. Food provided and travel support available.

The Youth Forum is youth-led. This means that the Youth Forum participants make the decisions about campaigns and projects they do, based on the issues that really matter to young people in BANES. 

Off The Record staff support the Youth Forum, for example through helping participants to develop their skills, and by organising trips.
