Places to Go??? Are you getting your voice heard?
Young people told the Government that they want more ‘Places to
Go’. So the Government is putting money towards ‘ world class
places for young people to go’ in local areas. The Government want
‘a transformation in the way youth facilities and services are
planned and delivered’.
AND…they expect adults (council staff or charity staff with ideas)
that are spending the money to:
‘ put young people in the lead to plan and deliver dedicated
youth projects driven by their views and needs’
These youth-led funds should result in youth-led facilities across
England (in particular, through the Youth Capital Fund, Youth
Capital Fund Plus and MyPlace)… planning and checking out what
young people want should be happening …..
We want to check this out with you. Is the thinking, planning
and delivery of new facilities and services youth-led…. Send us
your experience………..AS SOON AS POSSIBLE or by October 15th
ideally!5. Which is your local council area or your local town? (we
will not be identifying local authorities or individuals in any use
we make of answers)
