Youth

The Shire of Nannup's Youth Program is funded through the Community Action Plan (CAP), through the Australian Drug Foundation (ADF) and coordinated through the Nannup Local Action Group (LDAG). The team focuses on working with young people between the ages of 11 and 18 to enhance their connections to the community, through active participation and delivery of a variety of programs and activities.

The programs and activities are developed in conjunction with the young people of our Shire and aim to cater for a variety of interests and backgrounds.
