What a fantastic celebration of Youth Work Week here in Blackburn with Darwen, celebrating equality, diversity and inclusion every day in our youth organisations 🙌#YWW2024 @natyouthagency @ImranAkujii @blackburndarwen

Being ‘digitally excluded’ can prevent people from:
Accessing health and care services
Finding work and training opportunities
Connecting with friends and family
Managing income and finances
Getting better deals when buying goods and services.

Attention Youth Practitioners! Your expertise is invaluable in shaping the lives of young people. At UK Youth we’re asking #JustOneQuestion each month.
Last month we asked, “What's the best bit of advice you've been given about working with young people?” (1/6) 🧵👇

We stand with @romankemp as he calls for mental health support for young people. Youth work supports young people with their mental health, yet more support is needed. Thank you for sharing your experiences and highlighting this issue, young people need more allies like you! 👏
