Who are we?

Southend Youth Council is open to any young person aged between 11-18 who goes to school, or lives, in the Southend borough.

What do we do?

Our main goal is to provide a platform for young people in the borough to have a say over how their borough is managed. We meet to discuss the issues that affect us in Southend. Meetings follow a formalized agenda, which could include items such as a debate on current affairs and updates on our campaigns.

In 2014, Ofsted judged SACC as a ‘Good’ college. Training is delivered by a team with excellent industry sector expertise and knowledge. Employers receive fantastic support from committed professionals who will work with you to tailor the apprenticeship qualification and delivery to meet your individual business wants. Our Business Development Team works with 200+ local employers and provides a FREE apprenticeship recruitment service to help you find the perfect apprentice. In 2017 Southend Adult Community College was awarded Winner of Training Provider of the Year – Small by AAT and the Nursery World Trainer of the Year awards.
