I am sorry that Jes is too kool to leave his e-mail addres so you will have to send him a spirit message!  ED.
I have received a further e-mail from Jes who is keen for it to be known that she is not a boy.  An easy mistake for me to make based on the information provided.  However I believe that there is just as much for a girl to do in Sherburn as a boy so perhaps the mistake wasn't crucial.

Selby District Youth Council : Article for Parish magazines and Citzenlink

The Selby District Youth Council is a group consisting of elected young people, who represent the views and opinions of people of a similar age. It acts as a body for which local groups can consult, as well as setting up projects for young people.

Those involved in the group are exceedingly pleased with the new voice that people aged between 13-20 posses. They are delighted that young people can finally have a body of people their age to represent them to the council and on area committee meetings. Also, members have enjoyed developing their new found skills of; taking minutes, writing agendas, constructing constitutions and taking on roles such as chair, secretary, etc. Moreover, they have forged new friendships and have fun at the meetings.

The SDYC is currently undergoing its annual elections. Everyone in a school or college in the area has the opportunity to stand for a membership on the SDYC, and can be elected through voting in their school/college. This has been promoted through the school/colleges through a short DVD which explains to young people what the group is and how to stand for the elections. In addition, the SDYC website is under construction and will be available to view shortly, meaning that the group will be even more accessible; and people can find out more about the SDYC and how to become involved.

Furthermore, members of the group act as part of the panel for the 'youth charter,' a charity which allows young people to recommend organisations to others through an award system. All this work that the SDYC has done, and more that it will do in the future is helping all 13-20 year olds in the area become listened to and increasingly appreciated.
