Good Morning. Youth Council. Caroline speaking.
Complete the challenge or

Oh, hello, I'm interested in standing for election to the Youth Council,
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
and I was told to give you a call.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
That's good.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
Could I have your name, please?
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
Yes, it's Roger Brown. Thank you.
Complete the challenge or
click here

I'm Caroline, the Youth Council administrator.
Complete the challenge or

So do you know much about what the Council does, Roger?
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
I've talked to Stephanie -
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
I think she's the chair of the Council.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
That's right.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
And she told me a lot about it.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
How it's a way for young people to discuss local issues, for example,
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
and make suggestions to the town council.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
That's what made me interested.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
Fine. Well let me take down some of your details.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
First of all, how old are you?
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
You know the Council is for young people aged from 13 to 18?
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
I've just turned 18.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
And where do you live, Roger?
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
Well, that's a bit complicated.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
At the moment I'm looking for a flat to rent here,
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
so I'm in a hostel from Monday to Friday.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
I go back to my parents' place at the weekend.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
OK, so where's the best place to send you some information about the Council?
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
Oh, to my parent's address, please.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
That's 17, Buckleigh Street -
Complete the challenge or
click here

B-U-C-K-L-E-I-G-H Street, Stamford, Lincolnshire,
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
though you don't really need the county.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
Oh, I know Stamford - it's a lovely town.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
And what's the postcode?
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
PE9 7QT.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
Right, thank you.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
So are you working here, or are you a student?
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
I started studying at the university a couple of weeks ago,
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
and I've got a part-time job for a few hours a week.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
What do you do?
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
Well, I've done several different things.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
I've just finished a short-term contract as a courier,
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
and now I'm working as a waiter in one of the big hotels.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
That can't leave you much time for studying!
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
Oh, it's not too bad.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
I manage to fit it all in.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
What are you studying?
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
My ambition is to go into parliament eventually,
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
so my major subject is politics.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
That's partly why I think the Youth Council is important and want to be a part of it.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
And I suppose you're also taking a minor subject, aren't you?
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
I know a lot of people study economics too.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
I chose history.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
To be honest, I'm not finding it as interesting as I expected!
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
OK, so with your studying and your part-time job,
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
do you have time for any other interests or hobbies?
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
Well, I spend quite a lot of time cycling -
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
both around town to get to university and to work,
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
and also long-distance, from here to London, for instance.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
That's pretty impressive!
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
Anything else?
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
For relaxation I'm also keen on the cinema -
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
I used to go at least once a week, but I can't manage to go so often now.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
Right.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
Are you sure you'll have enough time for the Youth Council?
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
Yes, I've worked out that I can afford to reduce my hours at work, and that will make the time.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
So is there any particular aspect of the Youth Council's work that appeals to you, Roger?
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
Well, my sister is blind,
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
so I'm particularly interested in working with disabled young people,
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
to try and improve the quality of their lives.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
That's great.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
Well, the best way to get involved is to be nominated by some people who you know.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
Right.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
Can you tell me how to set about organising that?
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
You should talk to Jeffrey, our Elections Officer.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
I can arrange a meeting in the council office with him, if you like.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
Yes, please.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
He'll be here next Monday, if that suits you.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
That's the 14th, isn't it? Yes.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
I can manage late afternoon.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
Would you like to suggest a time?
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
He generally leaves around 5.30.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
Well, would 4.30 be OK?
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
My last class finishes at 4, so I'd have plenty of time to get to your office.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
Right, that's fine.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
Oh, and could I have a phone number we can contact you on?
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
Yes, my mobile number's 07788136711.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
Thank you. Well, we'll look forward to seeing you next week.
Complete the challenge or
click here
to show.
Thanks very much. Goodbye.
