How to get the best from this online resource:

Using the materials

The materials in this resource are designed to give you more confidence when leading groups of children or young people in contacting their local decision-makers. This is done through a mixture of text to read and digest, watching videos and reading case studies, and completing quizzes designed to test and stretch your own knowledge. There are also handouts on key areas that you can download and give to your young people.

Length of time needed

It should take you around an hour to browse through all the material in this resource. You don't need to look at it all in one sitting of course - and the platform will recognise where you got up to, so when you sign in again so you don't have to trawl through from the beginning.
