Protecting Youth Services

Your Lib Dem councillors have been working hard to protect youth provision in our area. A few years ago we were getting hardly anything, now we have youth club and activities at Framwellgate Moor Community Centre and at Abbey Leisure Centre, where where there are now over 100 young people registered in the youth gym we secured funding for. Recent cuts to the budget of youth provision could have put  services at risk but we are keeping an eye on the situation and have already ensured that one youth session wasn’t cancelled and that considerations are given to better ways of managing the service. We have als0 provided funding from local budgets for Duke of Edinburgh schemes and continue to look for more ways to improve local services for young people.
