Trends report gives
city’s youth a voice Future Faces has renewed its support for a major report into young people’s views and attitudes. Brum Youth Trends surveys 1,300 14 to
25-years-olds living and working in Birmingham for their views on issues such as transport to arts and culture. The report’s findings are presented at the
Brum Youth Trends Summit, due to take place in autumn. Paul Faulkner, chief executive of the
GBCC, said: “The report is engaging and insightful, and is a crucial survey that gives a voice to young people living and working in Birmingham. “It is well known that a large majority of Birmingham’s population is under 25, and understanding the views and attitudes of these individuals is absolutely crucial for the future of this city.” The report is put together by creative
youth engagement agency Beatfreeks Collective. Amy Clamp, head of partnerships at Free

New vice-presidents join exec committee
Two new vice-presidents, Jaccy Gascoyne and Rebecca Halbert, have been appointed to the executive committee of Future Faces. Jaccy was Future Faces’ Ambassador for 2018-
19 after moving to Birmingham in 2016 to join Deutsche Bank as a financial crime investigator. This involved reviewing cases of fraud, money laundering, terrorism financing, human trafficking and child sex exploitation, all of which involve funds flowing through the banking sector. In early 2018, she was promoted to associate
level, and then became a member of the investment bank’s advisory team. Jaccy, who now works for Santander, said:
“Future Faces has honestly been life-changing for me. It has helped me develop significantly and has helped me gain the confidence to present at professional financial crime conferences both in the UK and internationally. “I am absolutely thrilled to be joining the
executive committee and am looking forward to helping to shape the Chamber’s agenda for the coming year, while encouraging even more young professionals to sign up from across the region.” Rebecca is marketing manager in the
destination marketing team at Avison Young, formerly GVA.
‘Future Faces has played a huge role in my personal development – expanding my professional network and developing key business skills’
She manages the marketing for a range of
mixed-use developments and shopping centres across the country. Rebecca has experience in planning, executing
and evaluating projects across a range of industries, including property, charity, retail and STEM, and in 2018 was named Future Face of Greater Birmingham. She supports a range of charitable causes. She says: “Since moving back to Birmingham
in 2017, Future Faces has played a huge role in my personal development – expanding my professional network and developing key business skills. “Birmingham is at an exciting crossroads, and
I’m delighted to be joining Mark and the rest of the committee in further ensuring that Future Faces is the network of choice for our city’s hugely talented young professionals.”
Radical – part of the Beatfreeks Collective – said: “It is time for Birmingham to earn our claim of being the youngest city in Europe. “By joining up our thinking and listening
to our city’s young people, we could start to see what a youth lead city might look like; Brum Youth Trends is our attempt to do this.”
