Birmingham KS3 Active Citizenship Event
Wednesday 24th November 2010

Initial teacher meeting: Thursday 20th May 2010 4:30 – 6pm, Tide~ Centre, Millennium Point

Young people and their future are at the heart of the Cities Project, so we will hold a major event for Birmingham KS3 students during Autumn Term 2010, offering them the chance to voice their opinions about the future of their city. This is an opportunity for schools to help young people engage with active citizenship in partnership with a range of Birmingham organisations. There would be no cost for involvement in this event.

To register your interest in the event on Wednesday 24th November, email info@tidec.org
