Giving Young Women a Voice

NATIONAL COUNCIL OF YOUNG WOMEN

We would like to welcome you to The National Council of Young Women, NCYW, from the team that coordinates this part of NCW, Barbara Maddison leads the team of three including two other trustees Gillian Weston and Penny Bennett. The organisation provides a unique opportunity for young women to learn about and discuss topical issues, and to make a real contribution to improving our society.
We bring together women of all ages for discussions and workshops. In addition, the many schools, colleges and universities that have already linked themselves to NCWGB receive regular news updates, and take part in our annual conference and national surveys on current issues.Our seminars look at issues around: 

 

  • Work/life balance 
  • Citizenship – How local and national government work; the role of NGOs;  how you can make a contribution to society
  • Women in decision making – Women’s participation in decision making, from business to national government
  • Sexual stereotyping – The effects of gender, diversity and culture on women’s lives. The portrayal of young women in the media
  • Violence against women and girls
  • The Rights of Women and Girls as agreed in UN declarations

NCW values the views expressed by members of the National Council of Young Women, and we take their reports into account when debating resolutions to take forward to Government.
