It's Been A Slow Week!

Hello Everyone,

As The Little Leads You To Suggest, I Havn't Been Up To Much At All This Past Week. Nothing Youth Parliament Related, Except For Redesigning The UK Youth Parliament Cambridgeshire Website. It Needed A Good Refurb!

Im Going Out Tonight With The Other Members And Deputys, And Will Be Taking Pictures For The Website.

Im Hoping The Website Will Be Up In The Next Few Weeks, Along With (Get This)...... THE UK YOUTH PARLIAMENT CAMBRIDGESHIRE TWITTER!!!!

Many Thanks,

Lewis Punter.

Things Are On The Up.... Slowly

Hi Everyone,



I've Finally Finished My GCSE's! So That Means More Time To Spend On UK Youth Parliament.



Today, The UK Youth Parliament East Of England Region Met In Thurrok To Sort Out Things For The Annual Sitting And The CAFE Campaign (CAFE= Cultural Awareness For Everyone).



We Also Elected New Campaign Representatives. As A Result, I Was Elected Campaign Representative For The Fares Fair Transport Campaign. THis Gives Me A Great Oppertunity To Work With The Local And National Campaigns.



Also, I Am Going To Be Sending Postcards To MP's In Response To UK Youth Parliaments Campaign To Abolish University Tutition Fees, So If You Would Like Me To Send One On Your Behalf, Email lewis.punter@ukypcambs.org And I Will Put Your Name Down On The Already long List Of Participants.

Many Thanks

The Kids Are Alright Campaign.

What A Week Its Been! As Im Sure Most People My Age Will Agree, Its Been A Rather Busy Few Weeks, But This Has Been The Busiest So Far!



With An Exam Virtually Every Day, I've Struggled To Fit In UK Youth Parliament, But I Am Attending A Meeting Monday. I Officially Left School On Friday (Just Have To Return For Exams)



I Did However, Spend Some Time On The Campaign "The Kids Are Alright" Which Aims To Reduce The Negative Sterotypes About Teenagers. I Mildly Helped Them With Their Campaign DVD On Wednesday. They Had A Big Tent In The Middle Of Wisbech Town Centre In Which Was A Big Blue Sofa Used To Interview Members Of The Public.



I Am Also Searching For A New Deputy Member Of UK Youth Parliament. If Anybody Is Interested, Please Email Lewis.punter@ukypcambs.org And I Shall Send You An Application Form.



Many Thanks
