Young people in Bury will take over the council chamber at Bury Town Hall for “The Debate” on Tuesday, July 14.

The topic for discussion will be: “A local authority youth service is not necessary as it is the parent’s responsibility to provide young people with sufficient funds to engage in positive activities.”

Councillors and other adults will be invited to sit in the public gallery and put questions after the debate.

Bury’s Youth Cabinet has organised this event and all young people in Bury aged 11-19 are invited to come along and join the debate, which will take place between 6pm and 8pm.

For further information please call Heather Cooper, youth participation worker, on 0161 253 7165 or 07900 188695 or visit www.buryyouth.co.uk
