Join Our Young Leaders Advisory Board (YLAB)!

Are you aged 11–24 and passionate about making a difference? YLAB is your opportunity to shape the Mind Our Future project in North East Wales. We welcome young people from all walks of life who are committed to improving mental health and wellbeing for their peers. Our members bring diverse perspectives and experiences, united by a shared goal: to give young people a stronger voice and influence positive change in their communities. Together, we collaborate on projects, develop resources, and engage with organisations to ensure that youth voices are heard and valued. Whether you're interested in advocacy, creative initiatives, or community engagement, there's a place for you in YLAB. Join us in making a real difference.

Values,
Vision,
Mission

Our goal is to create a healthy environment for youth mental health in North East Wales, helping young people, aged 11-24, develop a positive mindset. We work together to create resources, both in-person and online, that support mental health, resilience, and wellbeing.

We collaborate with different organisations to make sure everyone feels included, supported, and respected. With creativity, acceptance, and positivity, we aim to make a real difference in the lives of young people, giving them the tools they need to thrive.

Hangouts

We meet on Thursday evenings from 4:00 to 6:30 with the YLAB, gathering at a venue chosen by the members in either Flintshire or Wrexham every three weeks. Each session kicks off with an icebreaker, and food is always available for everyone attending.

Opportunities

YLAB members are encouraged and supported to participate in our Partnership and OMG meetings, offering them more opportunities to engage. We also have Satellite YLAB groups and hold meetings with external stakeholders and other young people. These additional opportunities help to further diversify the input from young people.
