We are the Youth Impact Board!

A passionate group of young people are helping to shape the future of healthcare across Nottinghamshire as part of Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust’s first-ever Youth Impact Board (YIB) - a bold new initiative putting young voices and lived experience at the heart of change. Made up of volunteers, aged 16-25 from across the county, the Youth Impact Board is working alongside NHS professionals to improve services for children, young people, their carers and the younger NHS workforce. From influencing mental health support to helping design better career pathways, these young advocates are already making their mark - and have been recognised with the Volunteer of the Year Award at the Trust’s annual OSCARS celebration this year. The Board officially launched at a special event on Monday 3 November - attended by young people, NHS leaders, local partners and charities.
