Candidate
Statement: My name is Amir Alenezi, I come from a country very far away called
Kuwait. lived there with my family, my Mum, my Dad, my sister, my brother.
Things in Kuwait were not good for us so we managed to come to Wales.
Now I live
in Wrexham and have been there for a year and really like my new life. I like
my school especially English and I love football.
I’m really
interested to find out more about the Youth Parliament and meet new people and
learn all about the politics of Wales and the UK.
I hope I can
be a useful voice and help other people like me understand how things work
because I am a Refugee here. I hope I can bring my experience and ideas to help
in the Youth Parliament and listen to young people and represent their views
The things I
am concerned about are:
- Access to
Education for young people
- The high
cost of bus fares for young people on low income
- Prevention
and research of illnesses like Alzheimer’s Disease which affect so many of us
as we get older.
