Protesters, including young people, youth workers, and councillors, gathered in central Birmingham to express their opposition to significant cuts to youth services proposed in the upcoming Birmingham City Council budget. The demonstration saw participants marching through the city center, voicing concerns over the potential impact on 'vital' services for children. A petition opposing the possible cuts has garnered around 1,000 signatures. The protest aimed to lobby councillors outside the Birmingham Council House in Victoria Square against the planned reductions, which include job losses.
