New Young Mayor and Member of Youth Parliament

On the 7th March 2025 North Tyneside Council announced our newly elected Young Mayor, Diamond Okoye and our Member of Youth Parliament, Maggie Stead. This was following an election that took place across the borough in February, where young people aged 11-18 cast votes in schools, youth provisions and customer first centres.

Diamond and Maggie will now work towards their pledges for the next year, consulting with young people and Youth Council for their ideas, views and opinions.
