Clubs for Young People in Wales, 2009

Short paper which attempts to identify some of the structural changes that have taken place around the Youth Service and make some assessment of what options it has for the future and if it can survive and prosper in a changing society.

The idea for this project arose from discussions with Alyn and Deeside Community Agency about the nature of the Agency's/Forum's role in empowering young people and developing models of practice for enabling young people to have a voice in their communities.

The aims of the project were to enable young people and the local community to arrive at decisions about the use of Sealand Manor community centre for young people's activities and how young people can contribute to this.   The project was also concerned with broader initiatives which address the interests and concerns of young people in the area.

This specific item explores the 5 key elements or faces of globalisation. It explores the main impacts of these on communities and young people.

A guide to quality standards for implementing detached and outreach youth work. Includes:- Definitions; Principles; Working Environment; Management and Supervision. A sample budget is also included. Bilingual WYA 'Newsline' paper.
