Betsan was a Member of the
first Welsh Youth Parliament from 2018 to 2021.
The following was her candidate
statement for election to the first Welsh Youth Parliament:
My Key Issues are:
Education on the LGBT+ community
Reducing the voting age
Bike safety on the road
I am standing because I believe
that it's important that we as young people have a voice. I would be willing to
have my say and raise my voice for those who may be too shy to do so for
themselves.
I am a person who smiles often
and so I'd like to think that this makes me easy to talk to. I am happy to
speak in front of people and hold my ground if necessary. If I were to be
elected, I would stand up for the young people of the area to ensure the best
future for us as children.
To make sure that you are
represent in a fair way, I would put a focus on specific social media for the
role so that everyone can have their say, and I would try to achieve to the
best of my ability.
A vote for me is a vote for
everyone, a way of having our voices heard, and a way of having fairness for us
as young people in Wales.
