Youth Parliament: UK-wide youth consultation
Every year Youth Parliament runs a Make Your Mark ballot. Make your Mark is a UK-wide consultation that aims to give young people aged 11-18 a platform to have a say on the issues that concern them.
Members of the youth parliament will debate the top five priorities in the house of commons. Youth parliament members will campaign on the top priorities and discuss issues with decision makers in their constituency. The ballot goes live on 1 November and runs until 30 November. This is also the beginning of UK parliament week, so it is a great opportunity for young people to be heard and engage in the democratic process.
We really need your support to make sure we hear from as many young people in Norfolk as possible. As a result of COVID the ballot is online this year, but it is very easy to get your school/class signed up.
