The service was established after members of the Participation Works advisory group highlighted that young people should be able to assess resources and have a say on how effective they are, including rating resources.
Jack, a member of the service, comments: "It has been a great experience leading the project, highlighting what we as young people felt we needed to see in the service, and how we can help the improvement of the documents and resources."
The service has also given the young people the opportunity to gain a wider perspective and engage with their community. Another young person involved in the project, Farah, comments; "Recently we have evaluated Terrence Higgins Trust's advice on relationships leaflet. The feedback allowed us to evaluate a number of issues and give recommendations on improvements to create a more young person-friendly leaflet."
