GOT THOUGHTS ON WHAT’s HAPPENING IN YOUR COMMUNITY? FRIDAY 12th JUNE Is our next meetup and you’re invited.

The Youth Consultants Meet-Up is your chance to have a say on local issues, and meet other like minded people.

The nights are always pretty relaxed, interactive, and a space where your ideas are valued. There’s zero pressure to contribute, and if you’re just curious, you’re very welcome.
