CFF is proud to support the Leicester Youth Forum

Hattie Allen, one of CFF's Youth Workers, will be working with the Leicester Youth Forum to offer support and guidance to young people who are attending the group.

The Leicester Youth Forum (LYF) aims to improve the quality of care and patient experience for children, young people and their families who access services within University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust.

It is made up of young people aged 13-24 years of age who wish to actively participate in the designing and developing of hospital services in their own community. Some of the members are patients with long-term health conditions and others just have a keen interest in healthcare.

As a member of LYF you will:

• Be required to attend a meeting on the last Thursday of every month, from 6-8pm
• Meet other young people who also wish to improve hospital services
• Gain a greater understanding of how the NHS works
• Meet a wide range of professionals from the Trust and learn more about what they do
• Use your voice to influence positive changes throughout the hospital
• Have opportunities to take part in lots of different events and activities
• Gain new skills that you can add to your CV & university applications
• Meet our youth worker who offers support & guidance to young people
