Code of Conduct

This Code of the Conduct is for all young people representing the British Youth Council, whether it’s as a volunteer, a participant or attending an event.

Why we have a Code of Conduct:

• To make sure all British Youth Council activities and events are safe and inclusive for young people, British Youth Council staff and others who may be there.
• So it is clear how we expect you to behave and how you can expect other young people and staff to behave towards you.

How to report an issue

If you are concerned about someone’s behaviour or have a complaint against a young person or a member of staff, please initially speak to the member of staff who supports you or their line manager. If you feel they are not listening to you, or the complaint is against them, please contact:

British Youth Council Safeguarding Lead: Elsa Cardona, elsa.cardona@byc.org.uk, 07809 507 358.
