After three years serving on the Board of @bycLIVE, my trusteeship comes to an end this November. I’m too old now! This is an unparalleled opportunity for young people to set the strategic direction of a national charity that amplifies the voices of young people, and build board-level experience at a leading organisation that partners with government, the NHS, businesses, and some of the biggest foundations.

UK Young Ambassador @CuttinMaurizio travelled to Tirana, Albania with @bycChair Zara Khan for the @Youth_Forum's General Assembly, and then to Berlin with BYC's Deputy Chair @OsaroHazel for a conference. Read his summary of both events: byc.org.uk/blog
A photograph of the PACE Youth Conference in Berlin is overlaid with a transparent purple filter. On top of this reads a quote from the British Youth Council's Deputy Chair, Osaro Otobo, "It is critical we continue to have strong ties to the rest of Europe and that youth councils everywhere can work together towards a common good for young people." The UK Young Ambassadors logo sits in the bottom right corner.
