Doers and Shapers: Young people's volunteering and engagement in public services
University evaluation of a 2007 to 2009 programme in which eight Beacon councils shared good practice on youth engagement with 15 other councils. Young people reported gains in confidence and skills and there were concrete changes to some council services. Barriers were transport, time and lack of skilled support; skilled workers were essential for reaching the most disadvantaged.
