Charley was a Member of the
first Welsh Youth Parliament from 2018 to 2021.
The following was his candidate
statement for election to the first Welsh Youth Parliament:
My Key Issues are:
Increased wage for 16-18
More school support for lgbt
Plastic waste and pollution
I want to be a member of the Welsh
Youth Parliament as I am committed and determined to make a positive impact on
young people’s lives in my area. I am considerate and good at listening, so I
feel as if I could ensure young people in my area have the chance to make a
change. I would be willing to use social media and other platforms to ensure
interaction with a range of young people.
I am kind, considerate,
confident and passionate about making an impact on my local area and helping
young people ensure they have a say on matters that affect them and their
futures. I am confident that I have good listening skills and am good at
interpreting a wide range of opinions. I have experience on my school council
and being part of my local and regional youth forums.
I think I would make a good Welsh
Youth Parliament member and would be willing to spend time and effort in order
to help others and to help discuss important issues that young people face.
