Our youth workers are busy putting together letters and packs to send out to the newly elected Youth Councillors, and hopefully should receive an email and something through the post about the next steps.

If you stood, and have not been successful, our youth workers will still be in touch to let you know about the other exciting opportunities that Oldham Youth Service provide where you can still make a difference in Oldham.

Thank you to everyone who put themselves forward to stand in the election, you should be proud of yourself and the work you put in!

Thank you also to teachers and schools who have helped us run this election!
