We are youth group we go to each week in Skelmorlie Community Centre, we have 16-20 young people attend each week. This is free to young people to attend. This is a fabulous group where young people aged 11-15 years old. The young people interact fully and plan their sessions each week, this group gives the young people space to be themselves, to interact with others to have fun and to have an active choice in what happens within their group inspiring confidence and communication skills.
Project Description
Our group has resources but are very old and in need of being replaced. The young people engaged well in consultation and have each given their ideas to what we should buy to help their youth group to stay active and engaging.
Amy "all of the stuff is getting a bit old and its starting to break" - "I love coming each week to see my friends and play games"
Harrison "we want to play more sports and build on our team work skills"
Mairi "young people deserve a chance to play, exercise and hang out with their friends with good resources"
