Children and Young People
The Council is committed to promoting and supporting children and young people to reach their full potential.
We have thriving sports, recreation and arts programmes specifically tailored for children and young people. Check the following links for more information:
We are also committed to involving young people in our decision making processes. The main way we do this is through the Charnwood Youth Forum. The Forum is a group of young people who campaign on issues that are important to them. They meet every 2 months in venues around the Borough.
They are also represented on the County Councils Youth Forum called CYCLe, which represents young people at a County level.
For a website full of information for young people in Leicestershire check out The Jitty. It has loads of information on what is going on, film reviews, competitions, chat forum and much more.
