The UK Youth Parliament came together to debate their Food for Learning Bill which aims to extend free school meals for all children in compulsory education. As a long recipient to this provision myself, I cannot stress how much it can affect a child’s education.

It was a pleasure to welcome the UK Youth Parliament debate leads and special speakers from the British Overseas Territories and Crown Dependencies to Speaker’s House during @UKYP. It is important to give young people a platform to raise their voices on issues they care about.

The ‘Zoom Beyond Travel Pass’ is something that we at the South Yorkshire Youth Combined Authority introduced just after covid. It has significantly helped young people across the region to use public transport, making us one of the cheapest in the country for ages up to 21.

With the ongoing cost of living crisis, concessionary travel fares for young people are now more important than ever – and with limited funding from government, it’s incredibly disappointing to see that ‘Zoom’ will be scrapped next month.   @olivercoppard

On Friday I was in Parliament for the Youth Select Committees first oral session, investigating the impact of the cost of living crisis on young people. I am delighted to have been elected as Vice Chair of the committee and look forward to submitting our findings to government.

In March I spoke at the Student Sustainability Research Conference hosted by the University of Leeds. It was fantastic to celebrate the great research by undergrad and postgraduate students from all across Yorkshire. @UniversityLeeds @YorkshireUnis

It was great to be on the Economy & Finance Panel at the Yorkshire Sustainability Conference yesterday with Kate Smith, Vera Trappmann, Natasha Babar-Evans, Georgina Knockton and James Murray MP. Fantastic discussion around the social and technical aspects to a green economy.
