Friends of the Earth's Youth & Education Network
25 May 2011

Our Youth and Education Network is a national network of local group members with an interest in young people and environmental education.

The Youth and Education network is run by local group members for local group members.

Members go into schools and youth clubs all over the country, talking about environmental topics that they think are important and enthusing young people.
We have resources we can send out, guides about what to do, standard letters and forms to make it easier for you.
We can give advice by email or on the end of a phone.
We send out newsletters with ideas, resources and news.
We also have an online Youth & Education hub where we can network and share ideas.
We have training days.
A website is being developed with all of our resources on it.
We put schools and youth clubs in touch with members of the network if they contact us.
We do free CRB checks for all members of the network.

Young people are our future - Get them involved!
