Learn to lobby your local TDs and bring the impact of youth work home to your elected representatives

Hello John,

I hope you are keeping well.

I'm getting in touch to let you know about an exciting opportunity! We are expanding our “Local Champions” initiative ([link removed]) , and are recruiting new young people who have benefited from youth work to advocate in their communities, as part of our Youth Work Changes Lives campaign. If you are 18–30 years old, this could be the opportunity for you!

Deadline for applications: apply online to become a Local Champion by 8th March

Local Champions will
* Attend an intensive in-person training day on 6th April in Dublin and receive tailored online evening workshops in April/May to develop their advocacy skills.
* Contact your local TDs and meet them from May 2024 to July 2024
* Attend monthly online ‘check in’ meetings from May to support lobbying efforts.
* Spread the word on and offline and show others the value of youth work in whatever other creative ways you feel inspired to do after our trainings
* and more!

You’ll find full details on the local champions page ([link removed]) of our website.

Please do register your interest or share this with anyone you think may be interested.

And if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to get in touch – we’d love to hear what you think of this initiative.

Kind regards,

Grace
