Youth Voice Training

Always basing our training on real life experiences; we guide participants through the what, why and how of youth voice. Whether you're a professional learning about enabling youth voice or whether it's young people learning how to have their voice heard.
Join the hundreds of people who have already made an impact in their organisation by using what they've learnt on our training courses.
We run regular public training courses and can deliver in-house youth voice and bespoke courses.

We can also deliver courses for networks, membership organisations or simply groups of like-minded organisations.

Influencing Projects

Our team thrives on meeting the challenges set by commissioners and enabling young people to have their voice and influence organisations.

We have developed the Arts Award Youth Network over several years and continue to enjoy regular opportunities to engage young people in developing and supporting Arts Award nationally.

As well as research based projects, we deliver media projects, consultancy and direct youth panel facilitation projects for local and regional organisations.

Work with us to develop how young people can influence your work, whatever stage of the process you might be at.
