Agenda item

To receive an update on the Youth Council from the Administrative Assistant – Communications & Engagement.

The Committee received the report of the Communications & Engagement Administrative Assistant regarding the recent activity of the Youth Council.

Members were informed of two new additions to the Youth Council, along with two further potential members. It was hoped that, with the continued support and guidance of Officers, Youth Councillor mentors, and possible collaboration with existing local school Councils, progress could be made towards achieving some of the Youth Council’s objectives.

Members were in agreement with the use of WhatsApp to aid communication within the Youth Council and for the creation of a newsletter to be issued to local schools, it was suggested that the Kings School and Cokethorpe School were included in the distribution.

Resolved:

1. That, the report be noted and,
2. That, WhatsApp be approved as a form of communication and,
3. That, a monthly slide newsletter be created and issued to local schools.
