A youth worker listens when no one else will, a youth centre offers a safe escape & youth clubs develop skills for life 🫂
We’re calling for @RishiSunak to put young people at the forefront of government spending plans this autumn.
Now is the time to #InvestInYouth 🙏

It was great to have an insight in to what @artsbythesea would bring to #Bournemouth this weekend.
We had a workshop with these awesome 8 foot puppets, which told an inspiring story about the journey of refugees. 🎭

Do you have an old working laptop or tablet that you no longer need? If so, they can be dropped off to #Westbourne and #Poole fire stations @DWFireRescue and then used by children studying at home because of the current lockdown.
