Name:
Katie Sheppard
Status: Deputy MYP
Constituency:
Nottinghamshire

--------------------------------------------------------

Which political issues are you most passionate about?

I feel passionate about getting reduced fares for all under 18s and I also think that ALL young people should have adequate sex and relationship education, so that they know the risks and will think more about what they are doing.

What do you feel is the biggest issue for young people in your constituency?

I think the biggest issue in my area is Votes at 16. Many young people in my area are for the voting age to be lowered to 16 so that we get a say as well as adults.

What do you hope to achieve during your term of office?

I hope to achieve a lot of things whilst I am in post, but my main issues are reducing the cost of using public transport and better sex and relationship education for young people and children.

What is your future career ambition?

I hope to become a paediatric nurse because I love helping people and feel that I am well suited to the job

If there was one message you could send to the government, what would it be?

I think that all voices should be heard, no matter how big or small they are. Also the government should listen to EVERYBODY irrespective of race, culture, background etc.

Additional Comments:

I think that every young person should have a voice and that all young people should have their voice heard!
