Protected Characteristics Workshop for Young People

We have had many organisations and local authorities ask us for resources they can use with their young people so we have created this workshop for facilitators to use.

 

This is designed to help young people think about the both indirect and direct discrimination so they can putt it into context.

All I ask is that if you use this work shop that you contact me and let me know how it went so we can help improve it, but also to let me know if your young people want to be part of the campaign to make Care Experienced a Protected Characteristic.

Many more are set to follow in the coming months. We are aiming to get to at least 125 councils by the time of the next General Election.

 

It's important to demonstrate high impact of this policy in the councils that have passed these motions so we are working hard to make that happen.

 

Following your local authority adopting the motion we can also help with policy suggestions for high impact, best practice and next steps.
