A Million Hands: What is it?

A Million Hands is an ongoing community impact project that tackles four issues that young people have decided matter the most to them.  We caught up with Becky from the Community Impact Group to find out more about A Million Hands.

“A million hands is the association’s initiative to unite all of of members to make positive change in our communities.  We’re hoping by the end of 2018 we’ll have over 8000 community projects happening every year”.

Becky also told us how this is very much a youth led initiative with both issues and partners chosen by a group of young people after canvasing the opinion of youth members throughout the country.
