Fifteen 13- to 16-year-olds have been recruited to represent the views of children and young people and influence decision making within the NSPCC.
Members have been chosen from 300 applicants from across the UK and a variety of backgrounds.
Many have active roles in their local communities helping others, the charity said.
They will use the platform to raise awareness of what matters most to young people while also advising staff and trustees.
Over a two-year period, members will be involved in sharing what’s important to them as well as taking part in residentials, meetings and workshops, and campaigning to share their views and opinions.
