Todd was a Member of the first
Welsh Youth Parliament from 2018 to 2021.
The following was his candidate
statement for election to the first Welsh Youth Parliament:
My Key Issues are:
- Environmental issues
- Mental Health Issues
- Educational issues
I would like to run for the
Welsh Youth Parliament as I believe I have the skills and experience needed to
represent the young in my Constituency.
I will if elected, talk to
young people in my area through social media and email, along with regular
meetings with local School Councils and the Youth Council for the area.
As a member of the Bridgend
Youth council, my Schools Student Council and various other local organisations
such as Sker lifeguards club I believe I have gained the skills needed to
represent your views to the Youth Parliament.
I have represented the charity
LATCH in a first give competition, where as a team leader I won £1000 for them
thanks to my groups skill in public speaking.
I have also taken part in many
debate competitions and am sure that I can represent and argue for you in the
Youth Parliament.
I believe that I am not only
qualified to take on this role because of my experience but because I will
listen to the views you hold and represent and defend them passionately in the
youth parliament, more than most candidates would because I will value your
opinions.
