VOYCE is Next Gen's youth-led leadership group, created by young people, for young people. It’s a safe, empowering space where voices are heard and ideas come to life. Every week, members meet to grow in confidence, build new skills, and make a real impact in their communities.

WHY ARE WE DOING THIS?

We believe real change starts with listening to young people. VOYCE was created by our young people to give others the space and power to lead. It’s about raising aspirations, creating opportunity, and letting the next generation shape the future they want to see.

CREATED BY OUR YOUNG PEOPLE

Everything about VOYCE has come from the group; from the name, to the mission, to the way we work. It’s youth-led, youth-powered, and driven by real experiences, challenges, and passions. The group defined the name VOYCE: Voice of Youth for Confidence & Empowerment - and that’s exactly what it stands for.
