I am honoured to be the current chair of the Chesham Youth Council. I joined because I wanted to take a more active role in local politics and have learnt so much ever since. This role has afforded me the oppourtunity to work with such a wide range of people and contribute to projects I am so proud of.

Being a member of Chesham Youth Council is something I really enjoy. It gives you a chance to be actively involved in our community, understand how decisions are made, get stuck in during community events and meet so many new people from a variety of backgrounds. I enjoy knowing that I can have a say in decisions made about our hometown and give back to our community.

I am passionate about making a positive difference in my local community, and wish to increase representation of the younger generations in local politics.

The Youth Council is such an amazing opportunity for any young people who want to get involved in the community, I love it!

I would like to join as I am highly invested in the Chesham community and the chesham area, for example, I go on daily walks around chesham. I would like to join as I feel that I could have a meaningful voice in the youth council as I care greatly about chesham.

I joined the youth council because I love to get involved with the community and giving back. The Youth Council has also given me the opportunity to make great friends from Chesham and elsewhere! 

I love being able to help out around Chesham and do great work with the Cygnet awards and other events. It's such a good oppourtunity to meet new people and grow my connections

I like Chesham Youth Council because I believe it's a good way to connect with the community and help create change for the youth of chesham. I started for my DofE qualifications and have enjoyed it entirely!

I love how the youth council allows the youth to be able to speak up and make the world a better place

Joining Chesham youth council was a great opportunity for me as I like to make a dfference to my community in my free time, specifically with the younger side of Chesham. In my experience, at the youth council we listen to everyone's ideas and work as a team to support the young people of Chesham and to try and get our voices heard. I think other young members should get involved because you feel a sense of accomplishment when you make a difference to those around you. For example, we are currently working on a project with our twin towns in other countries to promote activities that young members can participate in Chesham.

I want to join the Chesham Youth Council to protect the environment, celebrate diversity, and make sure everyone feels included. I hope to work together with others to create ideas that support the community’s needs and build a fair and bright future for everyone.

I am interested in joining Chesham Youth Council because I would like to make Chesham a better place for young people to live and go to school. I have experience of helping at events with other voluntary groups and I enjoy talking to people about their local community. I love my hometown and care about making Chesham a beautiful and litter-free place. I would like to be a voice for young people in general and SEND students in particular.
