Our Generation Young Peoples Day published their Delivery Report!5 years ago
By Bognorphenia
Two Day weekend event supporting young people on the 7th & 8th September providing a platform for performers and community groups
Our Generation Young People’s Day event facilitates the coming together of young people from a range of backgrounds through the medium of music, arts and performance. Young people will also connect with other young people on the day through attending the event, and also through the collaborative process of planning and delivering the event. The young people involved will be volunteers. This will also facilitate intergenerational connections and provide an arena for young people to work with other partners including the people of the community, family, friends, colleagues, neighbours and young people.
What we'll deliver:
Why it's a great idea:
We believe that young people can make all the difference to their communities and their lives through the power of volunteering. When young people discover what they care about, and are empowered to do something about it, they are highly capable, committed and passionate. We refuse to see any young person, no matter their circumstances, as anything other than an asset. Volunteering enables them to make a positive difference in their communities. It not only boosts their confidence and expands their social circle, it enhances their life skills and future employability. There is a lot of negativity around the younger generation in some towns, but this is a way to give them an insight into how their future could be and also decide what they want for themselves, and we are here to guide them and help them to achieve their foresight for the future the best we can.
Steps to get it done:
Bognorphenia also provide workshops for the younger children for free things they have made to take home with them and we also include them in a workshop where they make things for the event. This means when they join us they will see the part they have been involved in to make a successful event which includes all ages families friends community groups and volunteers.

Last year was successful Bognorphenia and a singing coach worked with a young lady age 16 who confidance was very low and did not engage well with the public. We took her under our wing and she love to sing, thanks to other people s help as well we mentored her to sing and she also performed on our stage in 2018. Now she sings in nursing homes and her confidance is shining.
