The group of cross-party MPs met earlier this week (5 September) to continue its work in ensuring the issues impacting young people are heard by politicians.
Natasha Irons, MP for Croydon East, who was elected as an MP for the first time during the most recent general election was appointed to chair the group.
She said: “I am delighted to be elected chair of the APPG on Youth Affairs. Young people across the UK are facing unprecedented challenges, and our duty as parliamentarians is to listen, engage, and serve on their behalf.
“I look forward to using the APPG on Youth Affairs as a vital platform for bringing their voices to the forefront of policy discussions, ensuring that their concerns are not only heard but addressed with the urgency they deserve.”
