Slides used by Simon Honeywell, Eastern Ravens Trust, at the Big Local spring event in Newcastle, organised as part of the Local Trust programme of networking and learning events for Big Local residents. The event took place on 20 May 2014. Simon talked about how Eastern Ravens Trust had been working in the Roseworth Big Local area to find out the views of local young people, including introducing some of the wide range of approaches and tools that they'd used. Simon was also joined by a couple of young people from Roseworth who answered a few questions about their own involvement and hopes for their area.
