Three St Brendan’s students have recently been elected Bristol City Youth Council members after campaigning and standing in the city wide Bristol Big Youth Vote.
Bristol City Council set up the Youth Council a few years ago, to try to ensure that ‘children and young people can express their views on the decisions that are important to them and that their opinions are voiced and heard.
