The charity, which has yet to be named, will be formally launched later this year and will involve young people, business and the voluntary and community sector working together to encourage more 16-24
year-olds to volunteer.

Ryall, who is currently responsible for managing the delivery of all the Prince’s Trusts activities to disadvantaged young people, will be working with both a main trustee board and a youth advisory board, made up of 20 young people who will ensure their age groups' views are properly represented.

She said: “I am honoured to be given such a unique opportunity. This new organisation has the potential to make a very real difference to young people’s volunteering. I am confident that with the blend of public, private, voluntary and community sectors who are already committed, that potential will be achieved. I’m particularly looking forward to the active involvement of young people.”
