Meet the Youth council

I want to create better access to support in schools for children and young people for mental health and wellbeing. As an MYP I would like to be able to make a difference for Cornwall on a wider scale.

I want to make young people feel safe within their homes, community and schools and to all have access to a trusted person. As an MYP I want to be able to Support young people through a hard time and ensure they have access to a trusted adult.

I would like to include cheaper things to do in Cornwall, such as skate parks, children’s passes and cheaper 12a movies. Also, accessibility in toilets. I wanted to be an MYP because I wanted to get involved with the discussions that go on, I have always enjoyed debating and this is it on a larger scale.

I want to get safe fun places to go for young people, where they can have fun, be happy and be able to express themselves.

Access to affordable housing and public transport for all children and improve care homes.

I want young people to feel that they have accessibility to support, for mental health, education and their general wellbeing.

Ensuring young people are involved in decisions that affect them in their school life. Such as, changes to uniform and times of the school day.

Advocate for equal opportunities, ensuring every child in Cornwall thrives regardless of their background. Empower futures, break barriers, inspire change.

I want there to be safer places for young people to play and more footpaths to allow safer journeys for pedestrians, as well as cyclists.

I would like a wider range of leisure activities. This would enable young people to get involved in new experiences and have fun.
