Young Citizens

Young Citizens is a UK charity enabling schools and colleges to deliver interactive citizenship education for children and young people. Established in 1989 by Lord Phillips OBE and a group of democracy education experts, we believe citizenship should play a part in every young person’s education before leaving school to help them thrive in and contribute to society today. From ready-made lesson plans to immersive programmes, we help you offer engaging yet flexible learning experiences – both as part of the required curriculum and beyond. Bringing citizenship to life for thousands of children and young people each year.
