We launched the First News Children’s Party to give young people a voice during this general election year.

Recently we attended the launch of Girlguiding’s ‘For all girls’, where they shared the topics that they want the next Government to champion for women and girls in the future.

Their four key themes were girls’ safety, mental health, cost of living and the environment.

The event was attended by politicians and decision-makers, as well as celebrity guest Ashley James, who spoke about girls’ mental health.

This week in First News, we hear from some of the Guides who attended the event and spoke to us about the issues that matter to them.
