About Us

Who we are

A group of 27 young leaders, aged 16-19, from within the Ōrākei Local Board area that delivers several projects throughout the year to inspire, represent, and connect youth within our diverse community. We are an independent and non-partisan entity that is funded and proudly supported by the Ōrākei Local Board.

What we do

We not only organise and deliver various projects, but we also equip and engage youth by representing their voice for the future of Ōrākei and wider Auckland through advising and submitting on council policies.
