It’s been a busy but really great year for Young ACAN, so Emma Jones Young ACAN’s leader thought it would be good to celebrate their highlights. 

Here they are – enjoy!

Emma and Scott thank all the schools and Alton College for their contribution to the Young ACAN partnership – it is hugely appreciated, particularly as school and college life is incredibly busy. The partnership is growing not only in number but also in reputation and Emma was very proud to share their story at the recent Ministry of Eco Education Activators celebration event in London (see previous news post).  Emma says, “To be working together, empowering our young people to take action and showing them that collectively we care about their future is so important and through our events, meetings and activities, we do it so brilliantly.”

“Young ACAN is wonderful! It gives our pupils a real opportunity to be an active citizen; to
show them that if they are worried they can act and take steps. This is important for
mental health and well-being as well as the environmental impact.” A local teacher
