‘A national framework for youth action and engagement’
was published by the Russell Commission on Wednesday, 16 March,
2005.
The Report details the Commission’s recommendations
for delivering a step change in youth volunteering in the
UK – a step change in diversity, quality and quantity.
In its report, the Russell Commission responds to the clearly
expressed desire of young people to find meaningful ways of
contributing to their communities. It addresses current inconsistencies
and weaknesses in provision, which prevent the full potential
of youth volunteering opportunities from being realised, as
well as identifying ways to engage more young people from
disadvantaged and under-represented communities. Additionally,
the Commission proposes measures to significantly improve
the range and quality of activities for which young people
can choose to volunteer.
