Participation Works is a consortium of six leading children and young people's organisations that provides expert advice to anyone wanting to give a voice to children and young people. 

We are made up of: the British Youth Council, Children’s Rights Alliance for England, National Children’s Bureau, National Council for Voluntary Youth Services, the National Youth Agency and Save the Children - England.

Participation Works How to Guides are a series of downloadable booklets that provide practical information, useful tips and case studies of good participation practice. Each one provides an introduction to a different element of participation to enable organisations to enhance their work with children and young people.

Visit the Participation Works Resources page to download the latest guides.
