Youth Panel

Our Youth Panel members, aged between 18-25, are the strong voice for young people living in our homes.

The group, made up of Sovereign residents, works with our charity partner Creative Youth Network to highlight housing and community issues and discuss ways we can make changes.

Panel members have voiced their opinions on everything from fire safety information, virtual assistants for repairs, quality housing, affordable childcare and reducing loneliness and isolation.

Shawn, Dawn, Reanna, Ebony and Jess give the inside scoop on what it’s been like to be part of the panel, why they joined and what difference it’s made to their lives.
