An exciting opportunity to attend a free young people-led conference that will bring together young people, researchers and policy-makers to discuss research and public health priorities. The conference will show how young people can be involved in public health research, why this is important and what difference it can make.

This innovative conference is being organised by and for young people, as well as researchers and other adults. We want it to be friendly and fun, and to provide opportunities for young people and adults to get together and come up with some exciting new ideas. For that to happen we need you to be there.

Why should young people attend?

• Find out more about the PEAR group and how we’ve made a difference.
• Hear what it was like for PEAR group members to be involved in research.
• Learn more about public health issues and how they affect young people.
• Have a chance to share your views on public health issues, and make a difference too.

Why should adults attend?

• To hear about the public health issues that are important to young people and talk to them about their priorities'.
• Explore what works in involving young people in public health research.
• For all the same reasons as young people.
