Name Cumbria Youth Commission
Provider Cumbria Police and Crime Commissioner and Cumbria Police
Cumbria Youth Commission was established in April 2017 in response to calls by Cumbria Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC) Peter McCall to give young people a greater say in shaping services.
The commission aims to enable young Cumbrians aged 14 to 25 to inform decisions about policing and crime prevention.
Voluntary group Young Cumbria, a support organisation that provides advice and development support services to voluntary groups, supported young people in the commission to discuss issues important to them.
Out of these discussions came a range of recommendations on the first-year priorities. These included hate crime, bullying, mental health and underage drinking.
