Barking and Dagenham Youth Voice
Get Involved
Youth Voice is all about making sure children and young people across Barking and Dagenham are:
- heard
- listened to
- respected
- involved in shaping the things that matter to them
We work together with decision makers to help make Barking and Dagenham a better place to live for everyone, both now and in the future.
The Youth Voice team works with children and young people to:
- create safe, welcoming spaces where young people can express themselves in ways that feel right for them
- share their views and make sure they’re heard in ways that work for them and decision makers
- make sure that decision makers listen and that young people know what will happen next
- know how their voice made a difference by sharing what’s changed as a result
You will:
- use your voice, lead with other young people and create change in Barking and Dagenham
- learn new skills and take part in training
- experience different opportunities and have fun at the same time
- meet new people, including the decision makers
- achieve a Barking and Dagenham Award if you would like to
