Youth strategy

Our youth strategy has been created using feedback from young people in the district.  

The strategy seeks to ensure young people in East Cambridgeshire are engaged and contributing to local decisions that may affect them.

We want young people to feel connected, healthy, safe, respected and be aware of the support and resources available to them to maximise their potential.

The strategy's objectives are to: 

• empower young people by giving them a voice
• understand the issues faced, needs, aspirations and desires of local young people
• involve young people in effective and appropriate pathways in decision making processes
• promote the resources and support available to young people
• recognise the skills, knowledge and resources available throughout the district and work together to improve the lives of local young people
