Young people must be ‘truly involved’ in transforming education With young people under 30 making up more than half of the global population and over 272 million children and youth still out of school, their participation in shaping education is becoming increasingly vital.

Proud to see #iWill Ambassadors Mama and Folusho join Volunteering Matters at CINGO in Strasbourg, representing UK civil society. At the BRIDGE Summit with Volonteurope they championed youth leadership and equity. Thank you both for your powerful voices.

Celebrating Youth Volunteer
Today we celebrate youth volunteers. This includes both those volunteering with young people, and those who are volunteers and young people themselves.

Here are some photos from our event last year!
#WrexVolWeek #VolunteersWeek #VolunteersWeek2025 #powerofyouth

Today is Power of Youth Day an annual celebration of youth social action across the UK. It’s a chance to shine a light on the power of young people to lead change in their communities and the organisations that support them.

A boy holding a wooden block containing an artificial house martin nest. The quote reads: I like these birds because they are really interesting. They are light weight and travel a long way from Africa to nest here and must be very tired when they arrive. Putting up the nests will help them after their migration. I really like the way we have built these nests at Ludgrove and will not stop helping the birds until they are off the Red List.

What an inspiration for the #PowerOfYouth day! 🙌

Wilf was part of a group of students at Ludgrove School who were busy over the winter making artificial nest cups for the house martin colony on site 🪺

Our Community Wildlife Officer heard from Wilf about their incredible achievement.

An immense opening to a Backbench debate on long term funding for Youth Services by @ndironsmp.bsky.social in the Commons this afternoon.

On the back of today’s £145M funding announcement, there is a big opportunity and I hope the Government take it.

Farewell National Citizen Service, who gave me fab opportunities, let me nurture and meet some amazing people.

As they close, I am forever grateful for all I was involved in.

In the words of Michael Lynas (now of Duolingo): “You haven’t done NCS, you’re doing NCS!”

If a 17 Year Old can be in 2 World Championship Finals in a row, in his first two Tournaments and in the second of them beat a legend of his sport so convincingly, then you Youngsters know that ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING is possible. ✌🏽

Luke Littler = LEGEND. 👏🏽

#WorldDartsChampionship #PowerOfYouth

Very saddened and a bit perplexed at the end of NCS come March 2025, knowing just how much doing the programme did for me and no doubt so many up and down the nation.

See my full thoughts in Image 1 and my heart goes out to all staff affected by this big loss for social action.
