Every year the United Kingdom Youth Parliament (UKYP) holds a UK-wide ballot called ‘Make Your Mark’, where all young people, 11 – 18, can vote on what they feel is important in their lives and what they think Members of the Youth Parliament should campaign on for the year ahead. The UK Youth Parliament is managed by the British Youth Council (BYC), a youth-led charity which aims to empower young people across the UK to have a say and be heard.
It has been another great year for Oldham Youth Council reaching 33,970 votes cast by young people. We have produced a report from the results of ‘Make Your Mark’ from the Oldham borough down to a school level and includes both the regional and national results. This report is embedded below, although you can download it from http://oldhamyc.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/MYM-2019-Report.pdf
