The ECVYS Conference 2018 ‘Raising Youth Aspiration in Essex’
13th October 2018, 9.30am-3pm, At Anglia Ruskin University, Bishop Hall Ln, Chelmsford CM1 1SQ
There are many factors that cause young people to disengage and have low aspirations but what exactly are they? How can we, as youth workers and volunteers in Essex work with these issues to best support our young people and help them to be the best that they can be? What could we achieve together to improve this support and be an even stronger community of youth organisations?

- Professor Iain Martin, The Vice Chancellor of Anglia Ruskin University.

GDPR training
We managed to train nearly 150 people in GDPR compliance on the 17th April at Skreens Park, Essex. We ran three sessions and had an amazing trainer who really knew his stuff and was very down to earth. The feedback is great and everyone was able to take a memory stick back to their organisations to help them implement their learning.
