Competition for Young People! What is it like to be a young person in Southampton?

Calling all Young People in Southampton: What does Southampton mean to you? (Southampton’s Image)

Southampton Youth Partnership is inviting young people aged 25 and under to provide us with images and words that say something about;

  • What it is like being a young person in Southampton?

  • What represents Southampton to you?

    This is an invitation for you to submit an image (drawn, painted, collaged, photographed or digitally created) or piece of poetry (written, spoken, rapped or sung). We particularly welcome responses from young people across the city who might have different perspectives that they would like to share or think that their views are often under-represented.

    Prizes – for the top 3 submissions that made us really think about what Southampton means to you (as judged by a panel of young people from the city) we will award a £25 ‘One 4 All’ gift voucher. Every submission will receive a participation thank you certificate.
