Many young people feel nobody listens to them on matters that most affect them, like crime, policing, drugs and equal rights.
Even when they are listened to, young people sometimes find their views aren’t acted on, and nothing ever seems to change.
Here in Tower Hamlets, there are a huge number of ways in which you can make a difference. Fed up of the way your neighbourhood is run? Like to tell the police what you want?
The Tower Hamlets Youth Partnership gives young people the chance to meet the people who make big decisions about the borough and the way it’s run.
Volunteering is a great way to make a difference. You get the chance to meet new people, gain experience for your CV, and have a good time all at once.
