The event, organised by Young NCB's advisory group of 18 young people, saw Young NCB members from all over the country coming together to celebrate their achievements so far and plan for the future.
The day featured workshops on youth crime run by Leap Confronting Conflict, on the portrayal of young people in the media run by Mediawise, on education and careers advice run by the Edge Learner Forum, and on children's rights run by the Children's Rights Alliance for England.
All the workshops focused on issues chosen as Young NCB priorities. Britain's Got Talent semi-finalists Flava also gave a dance workshop.
One member said: "All the workshops were great but I especially enjoyed the Flava one. Being a Young NCB member means I get the opportunity to take part in lots of interesting things that I wouldn't normally get a chance to."
