The Rutland Youth Council is a formal decision making and discussion group made up of young people from across Rutland. The main aim of the forum is to discuss issues that affect young people and take action on them.
The type of work includes peer consultation, delivering presentations at conferences, meeting with cabinet members, planning local campaigns. It may sound like work work but there is also lots of fun too!
The council gets to go on a weekend residential once a year and has a rewards and incentives system for vouchers and trips for all the hard work they do! If you are really serious about getting involved in making a difference for young people, this is definitely the project for you. Elections do take place once a year but there are opportunities to joining at different points in the year, contact Karen for more information

Other duties include organising campaigns, liaising with the Chief Executive from Rutland County Council regarding local issues and further development, representing Rutland at conferences and getting involved in wider consultations.
Sexual Health Service
Sexual health information, condoms and pregnancy testing are available at “Jules One Stop” in Oakham between 1 and 2pm.

Youth Chaos
Youth Chaos is a group that meets at Greetham Village Hall on Saturdays from 2 til 4. The youth group is for young people aged 13-25 with additional needs. Their programme is varied and includes sessions on cake making, film nights and a host of other activities. Full details can be found under General Activities.
TOFU - Time Out For Us
Tofu is a group that meets once a month to do something for them selves. Members of the group are aged between 13 and 19 and are all carers and this gives them the opportunity to have some fun with no responsibilities.
Virtual Babies
Is a course that covers issues of sexual health, drug and alcohol abuse and the caring of a infant. This gives young people up to date information to make informed choices about having a baby and what it means to their lifestyle. To help them in this they will be able to take home one of the virtual babies which, although plastic, does almost everything a real baby does including keeping them up at nights.
PAYP- Positive Activities for Young People
PAYP takes place during the school holidays as is a mixture of fun things and courses that young people can do. This could be a trip to Adrenalin Alley or a day trip to Skegness or the Virtual Baby course or how to get the best out of a digital camera. The activities are posted on the website under Latest News along with consent forms.
