| Ed Balls MP launches pioneering toolkit |
A pioneering toolkit was launched on Friday 11 December by Ed Balls MP, Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families, at Beam in Wakefield. Read more on this story.
The activity-based toolkit has been developed to capture the views of young people aged 9-14, who are often left out of decisions that affect their lives. Developed by CABE and Beam, with The Architecture Centre, Bristol and Kent Architecture Centre, it explores what young people think about how local places are used and how they can be improved. For details on how to apply for facilitator training, visit our website.
