You told us what your priorities are, and we came up with five themes:
Safety & Belonging - You also want a community that is inclusive and safe for all young people, regardless of background, ability, gender, culture or identity.
Health and Wellbeing- You're facing a lot of pressures - school, body image, substance use and social isolation are just a few. Access to youth appropriate mental health services, tackling bullying and stigma and supporting recreational options that are healthy, fun and inclusive are important to you.
Youth Voice & Leadership - Across our region, you want to be involved in decisions that affect you. We need to take you seriously, supported you to lead and give you the chance to shape your community.
Places & Spaces - You love the community, but have concerns about safety and about infrastructure - especially infrastructure for young people where you can connect with your friends and be yourself.
Participation in Education, Training & Work - Education, training and work are pathways to independence. You want to see some of the barriers to these remove to create more job opportunities and educational opportunities
