The Primary Ambassadors are children in year 5 in local primary schools who are not just role models for their schools but for children across Doncaster. Their role is to champion children's voice and work on issues important to children in Doncaster. They attend meetings, high profile events and work on campaigns set out by our Junior Make Your Mark Campaign. They are selected through the Junior Civic Mayor process and the 10 shortlisted for the role have the chance to be a Primary Ambassador!

 

As part of our plans to become Child Friendly Doncaster, Doncaster Council’s Partnerships and Engagement team recognise the importance of Children's voice and participation within those plans.

Through their fantastic work the Primary Ambassadors have made significant impacts in representing the Primary Voice of Doncaster attending various meetings with senior decision makers across the borough. To date the Primary Ambassadors have done a brilliant job representing their peers within their schools as well as coming up with ideas on how to raise awareness, educate people about the importance civic pride, thinking green and clean and looking after where you live for the future and beyond.
