What we do


 

Did you know young people in Ealing have a voice that is used to influence change within the council?

 

Ealing Youth Action is a dynamic and diverse group who represents the views of young people in Ealing. We do this by attending local committee meetings, scrutiny panels and conferences. This is the place where we voice our opinions and influence councillors.

 

By getting involved with EYA you will develop and improve your skills to enable you to put them into action to make a difference. These include presentation skills, self-awareness, and experience in debates/discussions, campaigns and public speaking.

Recently we participated in the Local Democracy Week and had been organising the annual youth conference Speak Out 2009 that took place on Saturday 7 February 2009 at Thames Valley University.

 

We also have representatives at the UK Youth Parliament. Some of us are involved with the Youth Opportunity/Capital funds where we decide on funds that are granted to local groups of young people. EYA offers young people the opportunity to set up activities of your choice through a focus group. Currently young people have received money from Cash 4 Youth to develop a DVD project. EYA has also recently published their first newsletter.

 

Now you've read all about it, why not join?
