Council has launched its Golden Plains Youth Survey and wants to hear from you!
Golden Plains Shire Council is encouraging all residents to participate in the Golden Plains Youth Survey to help shape a brighter future for young people in our communities. This is a valuable platform to provide feedback on important issues that affect young people and support Council to create opportunities that will contribute to healthier, happier and more connected young people in Golden Plains.
The Golden Plains Youth Survey features two survey options – one for local youth and young people aged 12 to 25 years and one for community members aged 26 years and older, including family members, Shire residents and ratepayers, and service providers. The tailored surveys are designed to capture a wide range of views, ideas and perspectives, that are valuable to learn more about the needs and wants of local young people and their families and supporters.
Mayor Cr Helena Kirby encourages all young people and their supporters to have their say on the Golden Plains Youth Survey.
“Young people are important and valued members of our community and Council are committed to fostering opportunities for young people to be healthier, happier and more connected. If it’s important to young people, then it’s important to us and we need to know about it.
“Council are encouraging young people, young adults, parents, carers, guardians, teachers, volunteers, service providers, coaches, business owners etc to complete the survey and help create an improved future for young people in our community.”
