Greenwich Young People's Council (GYPC) is a strategic forum for young people to represent the views, concerns and aspirations of children and young people in Royal Greenwich.
They strive for improved outcomes and influence decision-making across the council.
Representatives serve for a two-year term following a democratic elections process in their schools and youth hubs.
They work to deliver against manifesto priorities, including running campaigns and collaborating with councillors, to make a difference in their schools and wider communities.
