UK Youth Parliament

Andrew is encouraging local young people to apply for the UK Youth Parliament scheme.


Andrew reports, "I understand that young people, aged 11-18 years, can once again apply to represent their local area and take part in the UK Youth Parliament scheme, with the next elections due to take place next year.


"This is a great opportunity to develop skills such as public speaking, debating, leadership, organisation, teamwork and more."
