Resources for young people content

Voting, democracy and politics can be confusing. Language can sometimes be unclear and old-fashioned. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed.

This section will help you to feel more confident and knowledgeable about elections, and how you can get involved in democracy.

Politics can feel difficult to talk about. There are a lot of different views on big and small issues. It could feel that you’re the only one who thinks a certain way and you might feel worried about sharing your opinions.

It’s easy to avoid talking about serious topics. However, the more we talk about them, the more we can learn and the bigger impact we can make.

When talking about politics and democracy, it’s always important to be respectful of other views. You might think differently to those around you, whether they are your parents or carers, siblings, or friends.

Remember to respect the person you’re speaking to and to listen to what they have to say too. It’s good to feel passionate about something and it’s important to treat people fairly.
