Youth Voice

The Frome Youth Climate Action Group is a new initiative supporting a team of 12–18-year-olds in Frome to take climate action, in their own way, using their own voice. This core group will design and deliver activities, campaigns or events to inspire other young people to get involved - helping to build a movement of youth-led climate energy across the town.
“Calling Frome’s future changemakers - young people ready to lead on climate action. Use your voice, your way, for your future and the planet’s.”
Get involved

Who Is It For? The project is for young people aged 12–18 who live in and around Frome who care about the climate. Whether you’re passionate about making a difference, curious to try something new, interested in campaigning, creativity, growing, making, or helping others, you're welcome. We're building a supportive group of Youth Climate Action Allies, where your ideas, energy and creativity can help shape a greener future.
Home educated, in school, part of a youth group, or none of the above - you've very welcome.
It's also for educators, youth workers and parents - this project is for anyone who wants to support young people in developing their own climate responses and build confidence as changemakers. Click here to connect.
What will it look like? The group will meet regularly outside school hours, working together to decide how to use a dedicated activity fund, and shape ways to bring other young people along. That might mean running workshops, campaigns, creative projects, trips or climate meetups - it’s up to the group. No experience necessary - just an interest in climate action and a willingness to be involved.
Aims & Benefits
This project is about action, not overwhelm. It gives young people space to shape change on their terms - to imagine, organise, and make things happen. Our aim is to:
- Offer real-life opportunities to learn, collaborate and gain volunteer experience
- Centre young voices and ideas in Frome’s climate conversation
- Spark positive momentum and hope-led action
- Enable peer-to-peer learning and engagement
- Strengthen intergenerational connections and shared learning
- Build on the energy already alive in Frome’s schools and youth groups
- Create a structure that supports long-term youth participation
The benefits ripple out - not just for the environment, but for health, confidence, community connection and a sense of purpose.
