Last Friday (9th July), in Saffron Walden, the inaugural meeting of Liberal Youth in Saffron Walden was launched to discuss issues of interest to young people in the towns and villages in this area. There had been considerable enthusiasm shown in the launch of this project and another meeting has been agreed for Tuesday 7th of September, where new members can come along and join.
Cllr Peter Wilcock, Leader of the Liberal Democrat Group on Uttlesford District Council, who attended the initial meeting, said, " I was very impressed by the commitment and enthusiasm of young people to get out and get involved in finding solutions to local and national problems"
Henry Farrelly, one of the new members, added "We feel that young people don't always get a say in this area, and the new group will help those like minded people to get together to make a difference locally. We are very keen on improving our local environment. If you want to get involved or come along to the next meeting, drop me a line at henryfarrelly@live.com "
