The Big Lottery Fund has produced a guide which sets out some ideas of how organisations providing services for young people can involve them in developing, running and reviewing services and activities. The guide is based on findings from the evaluation of the Young People’s Fund (YPF) programme. It summarises information about the benefits of involving young people in every stage of a project, provides examples of how YPF funded projects have involved young people in their activities, and details some of the challenges they have faced.

If your community project or community building would like to involve more young people this guide might give you some useful ideas.
