Welcome to the Waltham Forest Youth Participation recruitment website!
Here in Waltham Forest we have three main youth engagement and advisory groups. They are the Forest Flava Press Gang, the Youth Independant Advisory Group, and the Young Advisors. Over this summer we are looking to recruit more young people to each of the groups so that we can continue our practice of involvement and so that you can influence how your borough feels and how things are run.
This website will guide you through your application and provide you with contact details and useful information so that you have the best chance of a successful application. This application process is not an interview, so we urge you not to worry about your answers, and simply be yourself. We need all sorts of people for the different jobs, so don't panic about your different strengths and weaknesses - just tell us about yourself!
This website is run by the Young Advisors group - but fear not! It will handle applications for all three positions. If you have any trouble make sure to drop us an email with your problem, and we'll do our best to help.
