HAPPY NEW YEAR
Let's hope it will bring lots of wonderful and exciting things for all of us.
It's really nice to see that you're still using the blog to chat. Must admit I've been a bit lazy - I've had a very relaxing christmas holiday and haven't been doing any of the things I should have been!
Leah, you've got some great ideas for names. I especially like 'Young Hands, Minds & Hearts, Inspired by Sussex' but it's a bit long for a name, more of a tag line. Shame though because it just about encompasses everything that I feel we are about. Or what about another of your suggestions, shortened to 'Wild Inspired'?
I'll be in work tomorrow so will probably be in touch with you when I'm in work mode and have worked out what I need to say.
Speak soon.

Young People Taking Care Of Sussex
Leah Chevrier
Hi, my name is Leah Chevrier and i'm 15 years old. For as long as i can remember i've loved walking in the countryside, and over the years my interests in ecology, botany, biology, animal welfare and psychology, and wildlife overall have grown greatly! When i heard about plans to create a Youth Council for the Wildife Trust, I thought it was a great idea, as it would finally give young people the chance to tell the Wildlife Trust what we really care about, in person! Since being accepted as a member, i've had loads of fun with the other Councillors, and i believe we've come up with many great ideas and plans to bring awareness of and interest in wildlife to other young people in Sussex... I also hope and believe we will continue to do this, and i can say with sincerity that being part of this Youth Council is an immensely educating and rewarding experience!
Rachel Taylor
Hi, I'm 17 years old and I'm in full time education at the moment whilst volunteering as a Youth Councillor. I've always been interested in wildlife and all things nature-related! From pond-dipping to group discussions; we cover a lot at each of our monthly meetings and the Youth Council has allowed me to get to know others from all around Sussex with ideas that help to improve the Youth Council and which also contribute to the Sussex Wildlife Trust.

Hi I’m Laura! I'm 13 years old. I love playing football and going on walks in the woods. I wanted to be on the Youth Council because I love wildlife and I wanted to be able to encourage others to enjoy it too.
