NYS – Deliver You

The Government has launched a new National Youth Strategy for England, shaped by input from over 14,000 young people aged 10–21 (and up to 25 with SEND) across the country. A consortium including My Life My Say, Savanta and the #iWill Movement led countrywide engagement through a national survey, democracy cafes, and solutions focused hack events to provide young people with opportunities to share their concerns and ideas for change.

#iWill Ambassadors operating as Youth Collaborators, played vital roles in co-developing questions, co-facilitating workshops and focus groups, and played a key role in analysing findings – helping to amplify youth voices throughout the process. Their insights form the basis of the National Youth Research Project report, which was submitted to government earlier this year for them to help develop the National Youth Strategy, demonstrating our shared commitment to genuine youth-led change and inclusive policy development.

The Deliver You campaign was designed with young people at the core, moving beyond generic solutions toward policy informed by real experiences and ideas. The report details recommendations for the Government’s National Youth Strategy, including safer communities, better well-being, and expanded opportunities.
