Hampshire Youth Parliament

  • Tweet
Thursday, 7 October, 2021

Do you know a budding politician? Perhaps your daughter or son speaks like a future Prime Minister, your young neighbour is passionate about the environment, or you know anyone between the ages of 11 and 18 who would like to make their voices heard to a wider audience.

These young people could be future Hampshire Members of the UK Youth Parliament (MYP), which is currently seeking nominations for the next two-year term of office.

The UK Youth Parliament enables young people aged 11 to18 across the UK to use their elected voice to bring about social change. The elections are non-party political, and candidates campaign based on issues about which they are passionate.

Hampshire MYPs are elected in youth elections, held every other year, and organised by Hampshire County Council.

Once elected, MYPs organise events and projects, run campaigns and influence decision makers on the issues which matter most to young people. Interest in the Hampshire programme is rapidly growing and there were more than 13,000 young people involved in the last campaign. All MYPs have the opportunity to meet once a year at the UK Youth Parliament Annual Sitting (COVID-19 restrictions permitting).

Nominations for the next round of elections are open now and close on 29 October, followed by elections in December.

Young people interested in finding out more about the Youth Parliament, and how to get involved, can:

• email hello@hampshireyp.org.uk

• or visit the Hampshire Youth Parliament website www.hampshireyp.org.uk.
