Lowestoft Youth Action is an independent youth group in which young people themselves make the decisions. Using our fortnightly page in the local newspaper, LYA enables youth to have a voice in the community. This allows young people to express themselves individually without pressures from their elders. We started up the network as we felt there was a lack of provision for youth in the town - especially in youth having an independent voice, able to express their own opinions and feelings without being guided by others.
