The Bedford Borough Youth Cabinet is an open group for any young person aged 11-18 (and young people up to 25 with additional needs and those with care experience) living or going to school in Bedford Borough.

It is a space for young people to share their views on what is important to them/work on campaigns/meet with decision makers and lots more. 

The group has a youth committee (basically a younger version of the Government for Bedford!) which consists of a Chair, Vice Chair, Secretary, Publicity and Event Officers, Campaign Portfolio Holders, the Member and Deputy Member of Youth Parliament. 

The forum meets once a month, and the meetings are always 5.30pm – 7.30pm.
