Social Action
Bring Social Action to Life with I Have A Voice
We help young people turn ideas into impact.
At I have a voice, we support schools, colleges, universities, and youth groups to run engaging and empowering social action projects that build skills and confidence, have real-world impact, and inspire civic participation.

Why It Works
We don’t do one-size-fits-all. Every session is tailored to your group’s needs, interests, and goals. Whether it’s a one-off workshop or a longer-term programme, we help young people find their voice and use it to have a positive impact within their community.
UK Year of Service
We provided training to all three cohorts of the UK Year of Service, which was run by the National Citizens Service. We ran full day programmes covering how social action contributes to society and speaking up effectively. We worked with over 400 18-24 year olds - 86% were NEET.
Parklife
The Parklife project enables Key Stage 2 students to reimagine their local park so it meets the needs of their community and promotes biodiversity. We support them to pitch their proposals to their local council and take direct action to create environmental and social change.
News to Reuse
We incubated a youth-led, fair fashion campaign that wants fashion supply chains to be transparent so that consumers know the environmental impact of their clothing and the garment workers' human rights.
Democracy Ambassadors
We train and support students to deliver voter registration and election information sessions in their place of education and communities. They've reach over 20,000 of their peers.
Young Green Britain Challenge
We provided consultancy and hands-on support throughout the launch and the first year of the Young Green Britain Challenge, which empowers students to create local climate action projects.
Politics 4 All
This youth-led campaign is calling for everyone to get good quality political education so they know how to engage with democratic processes and take social action; and for people from all walks of life to be involved in the policymaking process.
