Cumberland Youth Week 2021:

In 2021, we had two Youth Week events:

Youth Story Expo and Youth Week Festival were attended by around 100 participants from Cumberland’s young people and their parents, and local youth services and community organisations.

All participants said they would recommend the event to young people, and most of them found the events excellent. Young people appreciated the opportunity to engage with other youth and learn about their stories, and awareness of the avenues of career support available in the LGA.

Cumberland Youth Week 2020:

In 2020, Youth Week fell during the early part of the COVID-19 lockdown. The centrepiece of the 2019 program was the Cumberland Youth Anthem - instead of being performed live, participants recorded themselves at home and our team created a video of the combined performance.

Cumberland Youth Anthem 2020

The Cumberland Youth Anthem 2020 was part of our Youth Week 2020 activities. Our Youth Week 2020 was nominated for the NSW Youth Work Awards 2020 for outstanding youth participation. Watch the video below to see the award-nominated amazing creative talents of local Cumberland Youth.
