Young Leaders Programme

Are you aged 16 to 25 and eager to make a difference in Wales? Join our Young Leaders Programme!

What You’ll Do as a Young Leader

This is your opportunity to access leadership and youth work training, enhance your skills, boost your CV, build your network, and so much more.

You’ll do this by attending bi-weekly online taught sessions while undertaking a youth work placement. Our Youth Cymru team will support you throughout your journey.

Our youth work approach encourages open communication between learners and tutors, helping you get the most out of the programme. The sessions will be delivered in the evenings, so there’s no need to worry about clashes with school, college, work, or other daytime commitments.

Highlights of the Programme

How will you be helping others?

You’ll be at the forefront of change, impacting meaningful local projects, sharing your important life experiences, and being a voice for other young people.
