young chamber

for students

The Young Chamber Council, with the support of their local Chamber of Commerce, will develop a programme of events and enterprise projects and activities. These can be very wide ranging and should build on the skills and experience of local employers. The activities may be delivered directly by local business volunteers through the Chamber or in a partnership with the Chamber and other stakeholders.

All of these experiences will help shape young people’s thinking; it may reinforce some attitudes and cause other views and preconceived ideas to be changed. The experience gained by young people involved with Young Chamber will stand them in very good stead for the future and give them a real opportunity to influence their own future success.
