Hope Hack brings together young people from
across a region to share their views, thoughts, and ideas on how to
make their region a safer and fairer place. This event will bring
together young people aged 13-21 and from a range of
backgrounds.
The views collected from young people at Hope Hack events across
the country, will go on to form the basis of a new report,
‘Reimagined’, produced by the Hope Collective. It will
be presented to political parties for consideration as they produce
their manifestoes ahead of the next General Election. This
ground-breaking report will outline what young people would like to
see happen to make the UK a better place to live and grow up
in.
The YMCA event aligns with several commitments made within the
Greater Than Violence strategy and consultation arising from the
implementation plan that will sit under the strategy. The VRU is
keen to facilitate partnership work that support effective
transitions from custody and/or education into further
training/employment and the victims lead is attending to bring
eLearning back from the YMCA event to GM.
