Glyn Davies, Conservative MP for Montgomeryshire, is supporting the launch of Chance to be Chancellor 2012 and is calling on schools and young people in Montgomeryshire to take up in the challenge to learn about, and share their opinions on, Budget 2012. Run by the Citizenship Foundation, in partnership with Aviva, Chance to be Chancellor is open to all 14-18 year olds across the UK.
Speaking about the competition, Mr Davies said “I’m very keen to see young people across Montgomeryshire getting involved in this scheme. I know that many schools in Montgomeryshire already take part in public speaking and debating competitions and I hope they take this opportunity to provide even more activities for their pupils. I encourage anybody who wants to find out more or get involved to visit www.chancetobechancellor.org.uk”
Running until the 20th February, participants can enter into a national competition to win great prizes and visit HM Treasury in London.
