Young Mayor of Newham
TCC have facilitated the second candidate training session for the Young Mayor of Newham. The training was filmed by a BBC documentary crew making a programme about young mayors.In a busy and exciting day, the 14 candidates learned about how to campaign, to hone their messages for their target audience, and to speak in public - and even found time to sing happy birthday to our director of youth engagement, Matthew.
TCC pioneered the young mayor scheme and are currently running programmes in Lewisham, Newham and North Tyneside. To find out more, please see the Youth section of our website.
