Get involved with Youth Out Loud!
Aged 13-17? Interested in health & care services or just in our work? Volunteer with us, gain skills and have fun!
Young volunteers are at the heart of Youth Out Loud!
Volunteers support YOL! in many different ways. Young volunteers have a role in speaking up for other young people, telling professionals what young people think about health & care services and advising what young people need. The views, experiences and efforts of YOL! volunteers have the power of influencing those who run services to make changes and improvements. Join YOL! todayDownload the membership form
