The National Ambassadors are a team of 17-25 year old Clarion residents who are working together to ensure young people have a voice in shaping our services. The podcast is a platform for the National Ambassadors to discuss issues that they are passionate about and interview people who are doing amazing things in our communities.
The first series is called Guardians of the Green Spaces, this series aims to encourage residents to get outside and explore their local green space and get involved in initiatives to help to make their neighbourhoods greener. 
The first series will feature interviews with a number of green-fingered Clarion residents and organisations that work within Clarion communities to hear all about the fantastic work they are doing outside in our neighbourhoods. The episodes also feature music expertly played by our very own National Ambassador Leon!

We will be filming a final podcast to address any questions you may have about the Guardians of the Green Space. If you have any questions about how to get involved in the National Ambassador Programme, how to start a green initiative in your community or just where your local youth service is please email ambassadors@clarionhg.com.
