Children’s Parliament APPG

First Registered: 30/11/2022 • Last updated on: 01/09/2026

The APPG promotes children's meaningful participation in democracy, ensuring their voices are heard in Parliament. It provides a cross-party forum for engaging with children, educators, and youth organisations to strengthen democratic understanding and active citizenship.

Note: All-Party Parliamentary Groups (APPGs) are informal, cross-party groups formed by MPs and Members of the House of Lords who share a common interest in a particular policy area, region or country. APPGs have no official status within Parliament.
