Youth Work Unit Y&H with the Network of Regional Youth Work Units is pleased to announce the launch of a new cross-regional programme. Thanks to National Lottery players, we have received funding for 5 years from The National Lottery Community Fund, to help young people experiencing disadvantage reach their potential.
​
This project aims to build an inclusive and equitable approach to youth voice and youth engagement ensuring the most marginalised and under-represented young people have their voices heard and acted upon across the nine English regions

• Developing our cross-regional collaborations through a rolling programme across the nine English regions. Developing and sharing practice around equity and inclusion focused on young people experiencing poverty, and discrimination.
• Creating a programme that incrementally builds practice designed with young people. Sharing the evidence on the most effective ways to engage, build impact and affect change, aligned with across regional needs/variations and starting points.
• Collaborating with diverse partners across our networks to conduct a review into existing youth voice and youth engagement and systems change.
• Sharing Learning through youth-led peer research, assessing how the models can be scaled and developed across the regions, creating alliances of young people focused on delivering change.
