Interested in getting involved?

The Youth Voice Executive Committee is a space for young people aged 11 to 19, and up to 25 if they have a Special Educational Need or Disability, to speak about issues that are important for young people. Our meetings and activities give young people the opportunity to bring attention to topics that matter to young people in Bucks.
