The Department for Culture Media and Sport (DCMS) are supporting 12 local authority areas, including Derbyshire, to undertake a comprehensive review of youth provision and young people’s needs. Please support this opportunity by asking pupils to complete the survey, which is aimed at young people aged 10 to 25 years. The survey will also go towards understanding how youth provision meets demand, supported by the National Youth Agency (NYA). The survey closes on 11 July 2025.
