About the Youth Action Plan
With our current Youth Action Plan ending soon, we are starting to develop our plan for 2026 and beyond.
The plan is about giving local young people opportunities to have their voice heard and actively participate in the Vincent community. It’s about making our City a better place for people aged 10-25 to live and visit.
We want to hear from as many young people as possible as we develop this plan, ensuring the youth perspective is part of our initiatives, projects, events and services.
