16-18 years old - be part of a Community Council
Vote and speak your mind - be part of your local Community Council
Young people often feel that they are not heard or respected, that they have little influence or control over the decisions and actions that affect them, and that public services have failed to catch up with the enormous changes in their lives.
Clackmannanshire Council believes that young people could make a constructive and meaningful contribution to policy-making through their Community Council.
BUT to be a part of a Community Council and work with the local authority and other public bodies to determine, co-ordinate and express the views of the community it represents you MUST be on the Community Council Electoral Roll.
