The Debate - Tuesday 14th July 6-8pm, Bury Council Chambers
A group of young people from Bury's Youth Cabinet have organised a debate in Bury Council Chambers at the Town Hall . Councillors and other adults are invited to sit in the public gallery, watch and ask questions to young people after the debate.
The debate topic is:
'A local authority youth service is not necessary as it is the parent’s responsibility to provide young people with sufficient funds to engage in positive activities.'
This is a great example of active citizenship and we hope to fill the council chambers!
