Youth United Consultation Panel
Thursday 23rd May 2019Following the appointment of Lee Bird from 1st Sittingbourne Company on to the panel, Lee has now been appointed Chair of this group, which comprises 11 young people from organisations that are part of the Youth United Foundation. The purpose of the panel is to help shape the work undertaken by the foundation and its member organisations.
This year they are working on creating a number of key principles that youth organisations can sign up to that will encourage social interaction and prevent loneliness. We are also pleased to announce that joining Lee will be Daria Bageac of the 53rd Manchester. Daria will be the second representative of the BB (the only organisation to have two representatives), and the youngest member of the panel at only 14. She will be focussing on gaining research on the benefits of volunteering and the impact of loneliness.
We wish both Lee and Daria all our support as they carry out this important work with the Youth United Network.
