🌟 Youth Empowerment in Action! 🌟

Meet our amazing new National Youth Executive Team, ready to lead JLGB into an exciting new chapter! 🚀

At JLGB, we’re not just focused on the difference we can make for young people but on the difference they can make in the world around them. We believe that when young people uplift those around them, they are lifted up themselves. 💪🌍 This year, we’re proud to amplify 📢 the voices of our young Jewish leaders, ensuring that they not only thrive but also create lasting change in their local communities and across the UK. ✨

Count Izzy In!

National Youth President

JLGB has been a huge part of my life for 10 years, and I can truly call it home. It’s where I’ve grown, expressed myself, and been surrounded by inspiring and supportive people. I’m incredibly excited to be National Youth President this year – a chance to bring fresh ideas, support upcoming young leaders, and give back to such an amazing organisation. A highlight was running evening entertainment at Winter Camp – seeing my plans come to life was so rewarding. Outside JLGB, I’m in Year 13 and hope to study Interior Design at university.

Count Amelie In!

National Youth Vice President

JLGB to me is about community, friendship, and opportunities that help you grow. I’ve built confidence, leadership skills, and amazing memories with people who share my values. I’m honoured to be National Youth Vice President this year – it’s my chance to give back to the organisation that has shaped me and ensure young voices are heard. A highlight was being in APE at Summer Camp – the energy and belonging were unforgettable. Outside JLGB, I’m in Year 13 studying childcare, working in a nursery, and I love painting and travelling.

Our vision is clear: Young People at the Heart of JLGB

We want every young person to have a pathway to fulfil their potential. This means magnifying the impact they can make in their communities and giving them a voice in shaping JLGB’s future. Youth leadership is not just encouraged at JLGB—it’s at the heart of everything we do. Whether at a local activity groups, camps or through our National Youth Forum, we provide young people the chance to lead, grow, and drive the change that matters most to them.

Following all the challenges of recent times, JLGB is not simply returning to 'normal'. Instead, we are committed to building a better tomorrow—one where thousands more young Jewish people each year can thrive, lead, and make a lasting difference.

Join us in celebrating youth leadership and building a brighter future for JLGB! 💫 Whether you’re a parent, alumni, or supporter, we invite you to stay involved and witness the impact our young leaders will have in the year ahead. Together, we can inspire the next generation of changemakers. 🙌
