National Youth Agency: Developing young people's voice and influence in health services

1 min read
The National Youth Agency (NYA) is hosting a seminar for strategic leads or their designated officers responsible for young people's participation in health services to discuss young people's voice and influence in the services that affect them.

There is a requirement for health services to provide for the systematic involvement of young people and their parents in service development. In order to demonstrate that they meet the Department of Health You're Welcome quality criteria, health service providers are required to show evidence of young people's active participation. This seminar will examine examples of existing practice and discuss the use of accredited frameworks for young people's involvement such as Hear by Right.

The day will include presentations from colleagues involved in young people's participation in health service provision and Richard McKie, national programme manager at the NYA who leads on young people's participation and health.
