Giving young people a say on health services – the NHS Youth Forum is recruiting!

The British Youth Council (BYC) is recruiting now for spaces on the NHS Youth Forum.  Members of the Youth Forum have led and contributed to brilliant pieces of work over the years including recently in updating Public Health England’s guidance on shielding, adapting it for young people and twitter campaigns such as #YoungPeopleMatter. They have reported back that they have / are enjoying their time on the Youth Forum and have developed new skills and confidence.   

Below are links to the NHS England and the British Youth Council webpages which outline more of the great work carried out by the members.
