Claire and Rosie went to the launch of the National Youth Strategy!

9 March 2026

Claire from the Devon Youth Council, and Rosie from the Barnstaple Youth Town Council went along to the south west launch of the National Youth Strategy on Friday!!

It was great to see that other town youth councils were represented too, along with so many of our amazing youth organisations across Devon and the south west.

It is so exciting to be part of the development of a youth town council network in Devon, which will really strengthen youth voice across the county as we start to implement the new Youth Strategy. ♥️

Do get in touch with us at participation@devon.gov.uk if you’re interested in starting a local youth council or are already part of one.
