MEMBERS of the Preston Youth Forum have gone on a 'chance of a lifetime' visit to Brussels and Strasbourg.
The group, part of the Lancashire Youth and Community Service, already spent months preparing for the visit, including a trip to Westminster.
Their quest in Europe is to learn more about political structures and find out who makes the decisions about education, training and employment opportunities which affect young people back in Preston.
During their stay, the group will meet with a European Commissioner, a representative from the Youth Forum Jeanesse of Europe, and will be given a tour of the £8 billion European Parliament building.
