Two new members of the Youth Parliament have been elected for Poole.
Jess Elms, 15, and Francesca Reed, 16, are both students at Parkstone Grammar School.
They won an election held at the Civic Centre and both have pledged to help make a difference to young people’s lives.
They will be joining our monthly Sounds Positive blog.
