Chair 2019-20

Hey everyone!

My name is Bethan Makowski and I am the Welwyn Hatfield Youth Council’s chair for this year. I am 17 years old and in Year 12 at Stanborough School, taking my A-levels. I have chosen to do Maths, History and Psychology and so far I am enjoying them. I have been in the Youth Council for around 3 years now and it has been such an amazing experience. I have been offered so many amazing opportunities because of it. To now be chair is such an honor and I cannot wait to do everything this year.

Once I became chair, my first order of business was to ensure we selected our priorities this year. After a debating discussion we decided on:

Mental health

Environment

Equality

I can’t wait to see everything the Youth Council does this year and I hope you enjoy following our journey on here!
