1. PROMOTE EXISTING ACTIVITIES
spot    "To promote the activities that are already available locally to young people, in a dedicated section of the village directory."

The toddler group meet regularly on Monday mornings in term time, and usually continue during the holidays. It is hoped to run a summer play scheme this year, contact Clare for more details.

The youth club, which meet on a Wednesday evening, and run very actively by Naomi who has plans to expand the current age range, as reported in the Winter 2004 issue of The Link.
Despite much hard work, support for the youth club has recently declined and it may even have to close... see article in the Winter 2005 issue of The Link.




2. NEW VOLUNTEERS
spot    "Advertise in the link for volunteer organisers of activity sessions in subjects shown in the appraisal to be of interest to young people."

The next edition of The Link is due in March.




3. SEEK GRANT SUPPORT
spot    "The Parish Council to seek grant support for these initiatives."

This can be looked into as soon as the new grant budgets are decided.




4. PLAY EQUIPMENT
spot    "The Parish Council's play equipment budget for this year to be targeted upon facilities for the 7 - 12 year age group."

A budget for new play equipment has already been set aside by the Parish Council.
Currently Michelle is examining a safety inspection report on the existing play equipment, and the council will review the findings, and consider new equipment accordingly.

As recorded in the Parish Council minutes for May the Youth Club were raising funds to help contribute for new play equipment.
A sum of £100 was received with thanks by the Parish Council in September which will be added to the playground equipment budget.

The Parish Council at the January 2006 meeting agreed to purchase three new climbing frames.

These was completed in March 2006 - pictured below:

Consultation references:
     
F16 We are satisfied with the maintenance and safety of the playground equipment and street furniture in our area of the village.
F17 If more playground facilities were provided for 7-10 year olds, we would use them.
F18 The facilities for young people are not adequate for the village.
