Contact1Vale, My Travel Pass & International Women's Day!

In our meeting on the eighth of March, we discussed a new app that was being developed called Contact1Vale.  It's an app for the Vale Of Glamorgan. By using the app users will be able to report issues in their local areas, such as potholes, and there are many links to information that the users would want to know, such as events in the Vale and general council information. This is made accessible to the users. As young people, we questioned how we could make other young people want to use the app. We felt that by containing information for young people and by showing young people what's available for them would enable us to promote the app amongst the youth.

We also completed two surveys: one was about our satisfaction in leisure centres, the second about Welsh Government's new Travel Pass scheme, offering young people discounts on bus travel in Wales. Finally, a big congratulations to Bronwen and Dan, who received certificates for 50 and 100 Millennium Volunteer hours. A great achievement and a display of great commitment.

Also, happy international women's day!!
