Highland Youth Voice

http://forum.caithness.org/go.php?url=http://forum.caithness.org/go.php?url=http://www.youngscot.org/images/imageGetr.asp?id=12346

The revamped Highland Youth Voice Website is now live at www.hyv.org.uk (http://forum.caithness.org/go.php?url=http://forum.caithness.org/go.php?url=http://forum.caithness.org/go.php?url=http://www.hyv.org.uk/)
The original website was set up to support the activities of Highland Youth Voice, a local parliament for young people in the Highlands, through which they could express their views and concerns about being a young person.
Since then there has been a real desire to make the website more accessible and attractive to a wider range of young people other than the elected members.
There are many ways for young people to use the new Highland Youth Voice website (http://forum.caithness.org/go.php?url=http://forum.caithness.org/go.php?url=http://forum.caithness.org/go.php?url=http://www.hyv.org.uk/), they can just access it for information, drop in to have a "rant and rave" or they can get involved through their local youth forum or even be an aspiring politician and talk to the decision makers directly.
The Highland Youth Voice Executive, which is made up of all young people, is happy with the results and feedback from tests so far. Anna Dougan, the Chairperson from Nairn, said: "We believe the new website has answered all the requests of the young people and now has the potential to be far more accessible to a wider range of individuals. We just ask that as many young people as possible use the website and contribute to the content so that it remains informative and fun."
