This Youth Week 2021 we are announcing our video competition!!!!!
We will be running a video competition that gives you and/or your mates the opportunity to create a short film about the various experience’s youth face. The overall theme will be Transitions.
Young people go through various and often challenging phases of change such as transitioning from childhood to adulthood, mental changes, physical, emotional and social changes. What we are after are videos that in some way represent one or more of the transitional phases that young people experience.
Everyone’s experience of change and transition is unique and complex. this is a good opportunity to be creative and visually represent what transition means to you. It is an opportunity for the expression of your own experience. Or the experience of you and your mates
For more information about the criteria and how to get involved head to
