To celebrate Youth Week this April, we’re excited to share ‘I am Lane Cove’, a project developed by the Lane Cove’s Youth Team that aims to

the Lane Cove community.
Voices of Young People in Northern Sydney
Voices of Young People in Northern Sydney is a
cross-Council project which surveyed young people in the region to gain an
understanding of their experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic. It is
envisioned the data gathered will assist youth services in their response to
support young people during the current pandemic and address any gaps in
support. This project was a collaboration between Ku-ring-gai, Lane Cove,
Mosman, North Sydney, Ryde and Willoughby councils.
