PERRY BARR YOUTH FORUM TAKES OFF










SARANDIP SINGH YOUTH PARLIAMENT MP AND PERRY BARR YOUTH GROUP REP


At a meeting of the Perry Barr Constituency Strategic Partnership today, which I chair, we had a number of youngsters come along, to represent the Perry Barr Youth peoples Forum.
The Perry Barr youth Forum, is for those youngsters from 11 to 18 living in the Perry Barr Constituency. They all gave up part of their holidays to attend this meeting.

They have been given 90K to spend on projects to help youth activities in the area and have had to wade through, a large number of applications from youth groups, to try and decide which projects were the most worth while.
Many youngsters on this forum are now taking the time to get involved with their local community.
They have representation not only on the Perry Barr Constituency Strategic partnership, but as in the Case of Sarandip Singh, who is the young Peoples Member of Parliament Representative for Perry Barr, Represent Young people on the National Parliament for young people.
It is really pleasing to see so many youngsters trying to do something for their community.
