At Fair Foundations, we believe young people are the experts in understanding the challenges and opportunities in their own communities.

What is the Youth Advisory Group?
The Youth Advisory Group brings together young people aged 16–24 who actively contribute to shaping the future of their community. Members work alongside each other to identify priorities, co-design solutions, and influence the programs and services Fair Foundations delivers for young people and families.
We’re looking for passionate young people from across the local area who want to create positive change. You don’t need prior experience – just the drive to speak up, listen, and work with others to turn ideas into action.
You’ll be supported by our Youth Support Specialists to explore opportunities, develop initiatives, and collaborate with other young people in a relaxed, welcoming environment where your voice drives real change.
