Conor, 15, Donegal

Having seen and experienced the effects of young people being limited in communication and keeping in touch with each other, Conor came up with the idea to support youth wellbeing and help young people stay connected at this time.

His idea is to create a youth-organised online hangout, where young people can join and talk with each other. Inspired by the ideas of playgrounds and common areas, Conor wanted to develop a youth-friendly space which was also managed by young people. 

To test his idea, Conor used a social media platform to host the hangout, which is accessible to many and enables young people to form groups and have social interaction whilst staying safe at home.
