Youth Council

The voice for young people who live or are in education in Hillingdon.

London Youth Assembly

The London Youth Assembly (LYA) brings together representatives from different youth forums across London to create positive change for young people.

The LYA holds quarterly meetings, which focus on matters that are important to young Londoners. These meetings are held in the Chamber at City Hall.

Partnered with Assembly Members, the LYA coordinates issues, promotes campaigns and discusses key themes across London.

LYA members are aged 11 to 19-years-old (up to 25 with SEND).

Each borough is responsible for electing or selecting a London Youth Assembly Member and a Deputy London Youth Assembly Member for the calendar year. 

Hillingdon Council is a member of the North West sub-regional group, which meets quarterly.
