Youth board

Working closely with the current DDH Board the team is responsible for youth-proofing our services and ensuring young people are involved in the future of housing. They have an active roll in our communities and want to make a difference to our services.

The Board consists of 8 members ranging from 13-16 years old from across the district.

The Board will have many responsibilities including:

• Meeting twice a month
• Designing and approving the youth page of our tenant magazine, ‘Tenants’ Voice’
• Developing ways of communicating with young people, tenants, residents and the community
• Youth-proofing documents
• Mystery shopping
• Attending training sessions.

In return they will be rewarded with the appropriate training, learn new skills, help organise events, all whilst having fun. They will also be accredited by Northamptonshire Voluntary Youth Action who will reward and recognise their volunteering.
