Children and young people from the Dream Catcher team tell you how and why they want to hear what YOU think

[Happy shouting and young people running to congregate around Sir Al Aynsley-Green, Children's Commissioner for England.]

Young Person 1 - We've got something really exciting that we want you to take part in.

[The group sit on the floor and start working together on some ideas.]

We are trying to get the message across to adults. We want to tell Sir Al, the Children's Commissioner for England, what to do.

Child 1 - [voiceover] You'll be telling young people what you think so they can understand you better.

Child 2 - [voiceover] You'll feel less worried about what you're going to say because you say it to the young people.

Young Person 1 - [voiceover] To find out what you want Sir Al to do we would like you take part in a workshop for a couple of hours. During the workshop, you'll be able to give us your ideas by drawing, writing and talking; whatever makes you feel best.

Young Person 2 - [voiceover] You can get someone you know to run the workshop within you or we might even be able to come down and do it for you.

Young Person 3 - [voiceover] If you want to run it yourselves, everything you need is in this part of the website.

Young Person 4 -  [voiceover] If you want to take part in this workshop and tell Sir Al what he should do just download the workshop.

Everyone - [waving] Byeee!
