We have an exciting opportunity for students from 8 secondary schools to be supported to run their own youth social action projects. We want to empower young people to act positively on the social and environmental issues they care about.
Is your school interested in taking part in this fully funded opportunity?
What is involved?
When is the project starting?
We hope to start working with a group of 10-12 students from Key Stage 3 in September 2022. The group will work on their project throughout the Spring term or Winter term, as we set up similar projects with primary schools local to their school.
Why is this project running?
Our recent research with nearly 1000 young people has found that whilst most 7-18 year olds do care about caring for other people and the environment, the majority feel alone in their concern and are afraid of speaking up for fear of not fitting in with their peers. We are keen to break this barrier down and normalise taking action on issues we care about.
