Hello and welcome to York Youth Council. We are a group of passionate young people who want to make York better for everyone especially children and young people. Our vision is to empower young people to have a voice and influence decision makers.
If you are aged 11-18 and live or go to school in York then we want you to get involved. We now have virtual meetings due to the current situation. Our meetings are fortnightly on Wednesdays, at 5:15pm until 7pm. Do share with us any issues or views you may have. For more information please email yorkyouthcouncil@york.gov.uk
Read our blog here. We annually support schools and youth organisations to take part in the national UK Youth Parliament ‘Make Your Mark’ ballot. In 2019-20 young people in York voted for Mental Health, Ending Knife Crime and Homelessness as the issues most important to them.
