Cumbria Youth Alliance, working in partnership with Westmorland and Furness Council, is carrying out an important youth services mapping exercise. This work will help us understand what is working well for young people aged 11 to 25, and where changes or improvements are needed.
We want to hear from a wide range of voices. Whether you are a young person, a parent or carer, a youth worker, volunteer, teacher, or part of the wider community, your insight can help shape the future of youth services across Westmorland and Furness.
Take Part, It Only Takes a Few Minutes
There are three short surveys, each designed for a different group. Each one takes under 10 minutes to complete and will directly inform future planning, funding decisions, and service development.
- Young People (11–25): https://app.upshot.org.uk/survey/1505a9bf/11208/61261cc7/
- Staff & Volunteers: https://app.upshot.org.uk/survey/eca7b2bd/11392/63f93988/
- Community & Parents: https://app.upshot.org.uk/survey/35fe41ed/11198/60b14d07/
Why Your Voice Matters
The information gathered through these surveys will help ensure that youth services are shaped by lived experience and local knowledge. The more people who take part, the stronger the evidence base will be to support positive change for young people in our area.
Please Share
If you know others who live in, work in, or support young people across Westmorland and Furness, please share this opportunity with them and encourage them to complete the survey that is right for them.
