<strong>European</strong> <strong>Youth</strong> <strong>Parliament</strong> United Kingdom<br />

The National Committee of the <strong>European</strong><br />

<strong>Youth</strong> <strong>Parliament</strong> in the United Kingdom<br />

Created in 1992, the <strong>European</strong> <strong>Youth</strong> <strong>Parliament</strong> in the UK is very active on the regional as well<br />

as on the national level. With 14 Regional Forums across the UK (one day events with elements<br />

of team building and General Assembly) and one annual National Session (four day event with<br />

200 participants), EYP UK has a very large outreach all over the United Kingdom. We also oversee<br />

a programme of outreach events which seek to increase interest and participation among state<br />

schools. Each year, the selection process of the participants of the EYP UK regional and national<br />

events reaches roughly 1500 youngsters in the UK.<br />
