We are recruiting for a Youth Advisory Group and a new Accessibility Advisory Group
The two Advisory Groups will each play a role in Council decision-making, especially where they can support inclusivity, accessibility, and intergenerational thinking. This year we have refreshed our Advisory Groups, with renewed Terms of Reference.
If you can represent the voices, ideas and perspectives of young people or people with access needs, please send your application by 30 November 2025!
