YOUNG people aged 11 to 18 are being invited to a special event to elect Blackburn with Darwen's Youth MP tomorrow at St Mary's College, Shear Brow, Blackburn, from 10am-3pm.
The event -- 'Power to the Youths' -- will give young people taking part the chance to air their views on important issues affecting young people in the borough.
Councillor Bill Taylor, leader of the council and a youth worker, has given his full backing, saying: "We encourage young people to think and speak up for themselves.
"It is important for them to take part in the UK Youth Parliament election day."
Free food and refreshments will be provided.
