We exist to celebrate young people's achievements and give you a voice. This year we've begun a special campaign to ensure that all the POSITIVE things that young people do are reflected in the media. The campaign kicked off with some research to see what adults think about young people. 1 in 4 adults would cross the road
if they saw a young person on the street (YouGov poll, Dec 2009). Why does society have such negative views of young people when we know that the vast majority are active, positive, contributing members of society? Our research got young people’s issues featured on 5 different radio stations - listen to Trudy's interview with Nicky Campbell on BBC Radio Five Live.
How can you get involved? Help us change things and make the adults listen up! We'll be in touch shortly to ask YOUR views on all this. You can help straight away though: show the world what you really get up to and Tell Us Your Story!
