This week, voting opened for the Islington Youth Council candidates. We have a number of EGA students standing as candidates. They intend to campaign on a range of topics including fair access to school trips, social media and body image and healthcare for young people.

This is a very important role because the 14 successful candidates will support the young mayor to decide how money is spent on services for children and young people in the borough. 

Voting opened on Tuesday 1st November and closes on Thursday 10th November. 

We will keep you updated on the outcome.
