Hey
Great to see you're all busy and chatting on the blog. I've been busy too and have got some things to ask you...
If you're all keen on Leah's idea about video-interviewing people at Springwatch, you needto come up with some ideas for thing you want to talk to them about - what are you going to be asking them about?
Also, Brighton and Hove Council are holding a mini allotment competition at Springwatch and they were asking whether any of you would like to enter - you just need to build one and bring it along on the day. Make it in a recycled container if possible.
We've been given a couple of jobs to do in preparation for Sprinwatch too so we're going to have a busy and creative next meeting. I'll email info to Melissa and she can put a rough agenda together and email it round you all.
That's all for now I think.

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!

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.
