Sounds Positive is a brand new and exciting project that has been created as an answer to the frustrated cries of the 60 members of the Youth Parliament in the South West to combat the often negative perception of young people in the media.

The project will battle some of the popular misconceptions of the youth of today, sustained in the past by some media organisations who promoted more readily an image of young people in dark alleys sporting weapons and labelled as "yobs" and "hoodies".
