What is Youth Day?
Youth Day is an annual day of activities organised by young people, for young people across the city.
It aims to show the important contribution made by 11-to 25-year-olds in all aspects of life in Salford.
We know our young people make a positive difference to our city - and we want to capture and celebrate this.
Youth Day 2023
Every year our Youth Day celebrations have become bigger with more young people showing the positive impact they have on their communities.
We want all young people, youth centres, detached teams and local groups that work with young people to be involved, delivering their own events during the week beginning 7 August 2023.
