About Cambridge Youth Panel

Founded in 2016, and, although only starting to work on digital exclusion in 2020, Cambridge Youth Panel has hit the ground running with great impact and with a team of around 16 volunteers and a couple of adult facilitators. CYP has already distributed well over 500 computer devices by the end of July 2020 to school-age families. These devices include chromebooks, refurbished laptops and Raspberry Pi mini-PCs. CYP works in partnership with Cambridgeshire Constabulary as well as local district councils and have developed their response to digital exclusion during lockdown through the input of Youth Panel members.
