Events

Youth Action Council is currently taking a break. Please watch our social media accounts for more information on when we will return. 

YAC aims to offer a few events throughout the year. Each event is run entirely by the YAC members from start to finish, from booking the space, to material lists to the cleanup, it’s all about the youth power! Through providing our youth the opportunity to learn and develop their transferable skills, we are investing in our leaders of tomorrow.  

If you would like more information on how to get involved with the Youth Action Council, on upcoming events or sponsorship opportunities, please contact us.
