Summary
Towerlands youth club is a safe space free for young people in the local area from P7 till S3. We focus on physical and mental wellbeing with many activities covering a wide range of skill sets from baking to sports. This allows multiple skill sets to shine and improve. We are proud to be apart of the Towerlands community.
Description
The young people of Towerlands youth club would like some new sports equipment to add to our limited collection. New sports equipment would mean we can play new games and try new sports that arent as well known. This would encourage new and returning members to keep coming and share with their peers to grow our group as stailness in activities has taken a hit on our numbers. The next thing they asked for was a trip to bounce station. Towerlands is in the most deprived according to Scottish index of multiple depravation in income, education and unemployment. So a chance for fun days like this would severly boost mental health and encourge new members to join and build friendships. Lastly we would use the rest of the money to get vouchers to cover food and snacks that we would need for movie nights or cooking/baking.
Break down:
Sports equipment £500
Footballs, soft balls and basketballs £40 - Basket ball adjustable hoops £259.99 - Portable goals £19.99 - 4 in 1 games table (pool, football, hockey, table tennis) £147.99 - £30 Rackets and shuttlecocks.
Trip to bounce station
At £15 per person we would like 30 tickets
And lastly £50 for gift vouchers.
How have young people been involved in shaping this project?
The young people of Towerlands youth club came together to make this application. We created a priority auction to see what the majority on the club would like. This being mostly sports equipment. We looked at local shops that sell the items they want and how we could use them for multiple games and activities. The tickets for bounce station would highly encourage new members to join keeping our group alive and to celebrate the accomplishments the young people have achieved.
