The main roles of our Youth Management Board will be to work alongside our PBC management team and Board of Directors to support, develop, improve and promote our work at PBC. We feel that it is imperative that young people are at the centre of our approach to work and provide input into our strategy, project work and our ideas.

And so, we are looking for a diverse group of individuals to represent the interests of young people across the Black Country.
