My experience of council leadership so far.

I have really enjoyed my council shadowing and am extremely grateful for having had this excellent opportunity offered to me. The council has welcomed me with open arms and have invited me to all sorts of different meetings, some more exciting than others, but always with consideration as to what I can participate in and giving me the chance to ask questions whenever possible. I think as a future improvement, many more students of our age should be encouraged to be included. So many people have no idea what goes on in council- it is very easy for people to criticise different aspects of leadership and action taken in the community but the experience has radically changed my perspective of how everything goes on and how difficult and tedious it actually is for a council to take an idea from the planning stage to the eventual product or result at the end.

So many, many thanks for the opportunities given to me!
