Lisa Yates

Education and Impact Manager at Young Citizens

Lisa joined Young Citizens in September 2024, with a background in education across many different sectors including primary schools, museums and galleries, sensory play classes and community projects. Lisa enjoys finding creative ways to engage young people in learning, whether that’s playing with fizzy dinosaur eggs to introduce pre-schoolers to chemical reactions or handling Victorian maps to encourage children to think about the people and places that are important in their 21st century lives.

Lisa works as part of the Education Team to create new resources and is also responsible for leading our evaluation processes, gathering evidence for the impact and outcomes of our programmes as they empower young people to be active citizens.
