The Albany Youth Forum (AYF) is a group of 16 – 25 year olds who help initiate and run activities for young people at The Albany. Starting in March 2007, their work to date has included staging youth events, writing fundraising bids, evaluating projects and co-facilitating courses and projects.

In return for voluntary time and commitment AYF members can have access to The Albany’s facilities and earn Millennium Volunteers certificates and Arts Award accreditation.
