Baroness Blake of Leeds (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 22 May 2025

Debate

Young People’s Media Literacy

Contribution

This is a subject very dear to my heart. The Youth Parliament has a lot to say, but that goes back into all the schools and school councils that contribute to that process. If we do not take account of young people’s voices, we will not make progress. The response to the “Adolescence” programme is that so many people do not understand the language that is being used. We need young people to work with us, especially those who have had poor experience, so that they can help us to move forward in this area.
