Youth Voice team in Slough
The Youth Voice team helps young people have a say in decisions that affect them and their community. We create meaningful opportunities for you to:
- share your views and shape local services
- take part in projects that make a difference
- develop leadership skills and confidence
- be active citizens in Slough and beyond.
We work with young people aged 11 to 19, or up to 25 if you are a care leaver or have special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). View our latest Youth Voice annual report.
What we do
We run a range of groups and events where young people can lead, influence and take action:
- Slough Youth Parliament: represent your peers, stand for election, and see your local representatives’ manifestos.
- Slough Young Inspectors: check and review services for young people. View the August 2023 inspection report.
- Slough Young Commissioners: work with adults to decide how services and projects are planned and delivered.
- Slough Youth Awards: celebrate young people making a difference in our town. Nominate someone in one of six award categories.
- Rise Up Participation Conference: an annual event where young people come together to share ideas. View the September 2024 conference report.
- Slough Young People’s Question Time: held three times a year in partnership with Together As One, giving you the chance to put questions directly to decision makers.
