Our CEO is moving on

Young Citizens is sad to announce the departure of our Chief Executive, Tom Franklin, who leaves us soon having overseen a five year process of strategic renewal. Tom commented: “I have thoroughly enjoyed my time at Young Citizens and am proud of all we have achieved over the past five years. I am particularly grateful to our incredible staff and volunteers who continue to inspire and empower young people to be active citizens”.

Chair, Edge Watchorn, commented: “We are immensely grateful to Tom for his outstanding leadership over the past five years and for all his work and dedication. We are sad to see him go and wish him all the very best for the future”.

Young Citizens will soon be announcing plans for recruiting a successor to build on Tom’s great work and we look forward to this exciting next stage in our future.
