PARENTS & CARERS: LET’S KEEP THE CONVERSATION OPEN.
Changes to social media affect young people in different ways. For some, these platforms are more than entertainment — they’re a way to maintain friendships, find communities and access useful information.
Listening to young people and understanding what matters to them is an important place to start.
Our fifth leaflet offers practical advice for parents and carers on how to:

Talk openly about changing rules
Listen to young people’s concerns without judgement
Encourage hobbies, friendships and local activities
Become a role model for your child
The aim isn’t simply to take something away. It’s to make sure young people continue to feel heard, connected and supported.
Let’s work together to make that happen.

YOUR MENTAL HEALTH MATTERS.

Changes to social media can bring up lots of feelings — whether that’s worry, frustration, uncertainty or simply not knowing what comes next.

It’s okay to feel that way. Online communities can be an important source of connection and support, and everyone deserves to feel supported offline, too.

Our second leaflet shares:
Simple techniques to help manage anxiety
Places to turn to if you need extra support

Remember: you don’t have to figure everything out on your own. Reaching out to a trusted person is a positive first step.

Save this post for a day when you need a little reminder to look after yourself.

UNDER 16s SOCIAL MEDIA BAN- Your Community Your Support. Your Voice.

You’ve probably heard about the UK’s planned social media ban for under-16s — but what do they actually mean?

Social media can be a place to connect with friends, discover new interests, learn new things and find supportive communities. That’s why it’s important that young people understand what’s changing, what it could mean for them, and where to find support.

Swipe through our first leaflet for an introduction to the regulations, why they’re being introduced and what you should do.

This campaign is about educating young people on the supportive community in Trafford and the resources and facilities it has to provide. We aim to make sure everyone has the information, support and opportunities they need.

Step in if you… TYC edition. TYC had an “inclusive and targeting session” lat Wednesday, where a range of discussions took place from conversations on the last GMYCA meeting where the Bee Network Strategic and Delivery plan for 2050 and the Youth Plan were explored. Afterwards we ended the session with a fun cool down where each member was allowed to share certain concerns and find similarities between them.
If you care about youth advocacy like we do join or DM us on our journey for leading a pathway for the future youth.

Trafford Youth Cabinet's Team Building Day!

Our amazing young people were given the opportunity to connect with eachother and become excellent storytellers. From icebreakers to Survival to Splat, the young people had so much fun!

Also, Trafford Youth Cabinet's members came together to create a ten-point agreement to ensure that it is a safe, inclusive space for everyone and that productivity is at its optimum!

To finish the session, the members each wrote a timeline of their lives and chose a key life event, positive or negative, that has shaped their lives and they want other people to take lessons from their talks. This increased their confidence, promoted awareness of boundaries and was emotionally moving for our Gorse Hill Studios staff!
