Young Citizens

Founded in 1989, Young Citizens is a national charity working to bring citizenship education to life for children and young people through inspiring school-based programmes and lesson resources. Each year, it enables thousands of state schools and colleges to develop the skills, knowledge and confidence their pupils need to thrive and participate in society today. 
The charity specialises in designing and delivering immersive learning experiences and free teaching materials that make complex topics such as politics, law, economics and media both accessible and relevant. By linking their learning to businesses, democratic institutions and the local community, it empowers children and young people to make sense of - and make a difference to - the world around them.
