National Youth Agency: Comment - Shiny happy people

1 min read
The Shine Festival is such a fantastic idea. It celebrates the talents and achievements of children and young people and recognises that these exist in each of them. What better way to dispel the prevailing negative perceptions of young people?

At the National Youth Agency we are delighted to be leading the Shine Festival in 2010 in partnership with the Department for Children, Schools and Families and a consortium of delivery partners. It is important that young people are at the heart of the planning and direction of Shine and we're very pleased to be working with so many talented young people.

Our job is to make sure we build on their ideas and deliver a fantastic week of activity that highlights what young people are capable of achieving. But we also want to go further - we want to build a monument that people can get behind and support. We want this to last throughout the year and gather momentum towards Shine Week in July.
