Ifan 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:
Social well-being
Health services
The Welsh language
There are 200,000 children in
poverty in Wales, thousands more with mental health problems, and others
struggling to pay for their bus pass. And the ridiculous thing? We have no
voice. You should vote for me because I would ensure that everyone's voice is heard,
including that of minorities. You will no longer be ignored if you vote for me.
Why am I standing? Because I
want to make a difference and help others make to Wales an equal country for
all. I want to make sure the voice of the young people of Anglesey is heard in
the Parliament.How will my voice be
heard? It will be possible to email me and connect via all social media so that
you can share your views simply and quickly. I would also hold regular meetings
so that I can come face-to-face with the young people of Anglesey and show that
I am a person that thinks about everyone - not an invisible member online.
I am friendly but confident and
want to make sure that the voice of the young people of Anglesey is heard
clearly in the Parliament.
