Wycombe Youth Action Helping Hands
Introduction
Wycombe Youth Action Helping Hands is a group of young people aged 11 – 19 who meet, brainstorm, and run projects.
Helping Hands members volunteer to improve wellbeing of young people and the wider local community of High Wycombe. We use our voices to share ideas, discuss concerns, engage the community, and create positive change.
Helping Hands allows young people to feel heard and valued. It is a youth-led forum that supports, empowers and equips young people to deliver Wycombe Youth Action projects in a practical way.
Working in partnership with other community groups, organisations and charities, we aim to reach all demographics and make positive changes in broad topics such as climate change, mental health, and social isolation.
