Hi, my name is Leonie, I am 17 years old and I live in South Yorkshire.
I wanted to be a youth champion because I wanted to be able to be more involved in representing the younger generation.
I wanted to be able to contribute more to society and its changes and I also think it helps my confidence a lot more and helps me believe in myself as well.
If I was Prime Minister, I would increase the amount of youth centres because I believe that youth centres help kids and teenagers make more friends outside of school or college and I also believe that it helps them be more involved in society.
