Join our youth advisory group
Do you want to be involved in decisions about Back Up’s services for children and young people? We believe that the best way to support children and young people is to find out from them.
“The best bit of the training has been seeing everyone grow in confidence and make friends. As well as seeing people’s ideas become aims for Back Up and feeling that we have made a change and contribution.”
Youth advisor
Not only are the training weekends a chance to have your say and influence the services but they are also an opportunity to develop your leadership skills, confidence, and meet other young people affected by spinal cord injury. The volunteer experience is also a great addition to a CV or University application!
