Brilliant and thought provoking presentation by Southwark Youth Parliament at today’s Southwark council meeting.

Grateful to Southwark Youth Parliament members for describing how “infuriating & demoralising” climate change is for young people growing up in #Southwark & for their constructive solutions and suggestions. Especially around tackling our air quality scandal.


Global Generation SE24SustainableEnergy If anyone had any doubts that the urgent need to tackle climate change is being driven by young people, delegates from @southwarkYP told us frankly about their terror of growing up in a world facing climate breakdown

A huge thank you to all those organisations that provided community evidence this evening on the #ClimateEmergency at Southwark Council Assembly. Brilliant presentations & packed full of ideas Global Generation SE24SustainableEnergy Southwark Youth Parliament Team London Bridge

Delighted that Southwark Labour’s Youth Democracy motion was passed unanimously at council assembly last night. It celebrates the fantastic work of Southwark Youth Parliament and calls on the govt to: ✅Support Votes at 16 ✅ Support Citizenship education for all ❌ Drop the Elections Bill


A big thank you to the Awele, Azmarea, and Niamh from the Southwark Youth Parliament. Their powerful evidence on the Youth New Deal and excellent work on mental health and disability inclusion at Southwark Council council assembly is an inspiration…


We’re now joining a panel discussion with Southwark Youth Parliament, YoungMinds, Jasmine Ali & Groundwork London to discuss case for early support hubs & what more can be done to support young people’s mental health & tackle loneliness #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek #FundTheHubs
