I want to become an MSYP to represent young people in my community and make sure that our values are heard nationally. I want to campaign for real change while developing my leadership and communication skills.
Too often, young people aren't consulted on significant decisions that directly impact our education, day-to-day lives and overall future. This is something I want to change. This is why I vow to advocate for everyone.
Personal statement
I want to create open, inclusive and accessible ways for everyone to share their views. I will hold regular focus groups with local youth organisations and schools to help represent young people's views. I will use social media and speak to people face-to-face to help me understand what the issues in my area are.
What are the three issues that you are most interested in?
Health and Wellbeing, Justice and Environment
What issue matters most to you and why?
The issue that matters most to me is protecting and promoting the rights of young people. We are constantly left our of decision-making and this has never sat right with me.
I believe that every young person should be guaranteed to have their voice heard, to be treated with respect and to be included.
Why Should Someone Vote for You?
I should be elected because I care.
I care about change and strive to positively improve my community.
I care because I've noticed issues and want to help advocate to improve things.
I care because we as young people need a strong voice and I'm ready to step up.
I can and I will advocate for what's right based on my constituents' views, which will lead directly to improvement.
