New Youth Centre in Southfields
Firstly can I say, I have every respect for Sally Chacatte and what she and her team have achieved at W4youth how she wants to expand.I am a bit miffed though when she states there is nothing in the Southfield ward for young people.My scout group on Rugby road has been there years, we are only small but we try to help young people ( we cannot offer the same activities as W4youth ) but we try.We also support the local residents, they use the hall for local meetings, quizzes etc, again with no fuss.LBE are quick to call us when they need meeting space and they want it for free as well.I would love to have the backing and grant access Sally has, we need a new floor and toilets.We like Sally want the young people to have fun, learn and develop themselves, which we certainly achieve.I apologies if I sound bitter, but I and my very small team put a lot of hardwork into the group and the only thanks we get is the smile on the young peoples faces.Glenn Young14th Acton Scout Group
