The Basildon Borough youth Council were saddened to hear the sad news about the Mayor of Basildon. We would like to send our condolences to Councillor Luke Mackenzie family.
May he rest in peace.🕊️

We supported the Essex youth service, in Basildon town centre with their volunteering recruitment day. It was truly eye opening to receive the amount of enquiries that we did.

Various youth voice groups attended a Digital consultation workshop to discuss different ways for young people to come together, communicate and promoting services on various digital platforms. Young people also had the privilege of trying VR headsets for fun!

we were more than happy to have attended the focus to achieve event run by the deputy mayor of Basildon #tncg which means the next chosen generation.

It was amazing supporting Basildon's Backside to Trackside event. It was an honour to hand out medals to the participants alongside the Mayor of Basildon and starting the race.

Congratulations to all the young people who made their voice heard and can now celebrate getting the results they deserve.

“I see no color” is not the goal.

“I see your color and I honor you. I value your input. I will be educated about your lived experiences. I will work against the racism that harms you. You are beautiful. Tell me how to do better.”

... That’s the goal.

Like if you were taught more about how spagetti strap thank topes were more intolerable than racism.

#BlackLivesMatter

[BasildonYouthCouncil @BasYouthCouncil]

Black lives matter today and every day! ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼✊🏻

[BasildonYouthCouncil @BasYouthCouncil]

Despite all of the past successes of the civil rights movements, people are still fighting for their rights today.
This day celebrates freedom and aims to raise awareness about the challenges black people had to face throughout history.

[BasildonYouthCouncil @BasYouthCouncil]

Their fight is not yet over, but things are already in motion and so many people are joining the BLM movement and showing their support.

Remember that change is inevitable, but growth is intentional. Only through collective effort we can influence the future.

Don't let quarantine stop you from appreciating the #Earth today

Taking care of your plants and keeping them green seems like a small thing, but it's a gesture of appreciation for our nature @AntoniaListrat is showing how to #spreadthegreen by #repotting her favourite #jadeplant

[BasildonYouthCouncil @BasYouthCouncil]

Happy Earth Day! This is the Earth Day's 50th anniversary!

Quick idea of how to celebrate today- spread the green by planting something in your garden!
Even adopting a new house plant can be a symbol of appreciation for our Mother Nature 🌱
