Our More Recent History
In January 2018 the coalition changed its name to Goole Youth Action (GYA).
​
The coalition's aims are:
-
‘To enable more positive activity provision to be offered to the young people of Goole’
-
‘To provide a platform for youth related organisations to share information and develop new opportunities.’
-
‘Enable young people to have their say, when, where, and what kind of activities, they would like to experience in the Goole area’
In November 2019 Goole Youth Action became a registered CIO with the Charity Commission, which enabled the organisation to seek funding and become independent and self-governing.
