Creating a connection between the city’s youth and the wider community is the objective of a new event that aims to inspire and empower young people.
Organised by the Bunbury Youth Advisory Council, Youth Connections will be held at Maker + Co on Friday, July 28 from 5.15pm to 7.30pm.
A range of speakers will discuss how the potential of our youth can be unlocked to make our community a more vibrant and diverse place to live and do business.
Speakers include representatives from the Clontarf Foundation, 2015 WA Young Achiever of the Year Rhys Williams, business and community leaders and Bunbury Youth Mayor Sean Smith.
It is anticipated the event will encourage young people to become advocates for Bunbury and help with the promotion of youth opportunities, while also empowering young people to become proactive in addressing youth strengths and issues.
The event is open to all youth and people in the community who either wish to engage with our young people or want to collaborate in a more inclusive manner.
