3. Projects

Project

Football Project

No report.

Skateboard Project

The program was continuing but of late had experiencing a measure of disrespect against them and Wicklea from outsiders and felt that an occasional Police presence would be of great help.
In an attempt to remedy the position they were applying for Capital funding to smarten up the hall and put in some protection furniture to protect the walls. They had also applied to Tesco Community Awards for £5,000 to broaden the project, it should take 3 months before they hear.
The intention is to open it to a broader section and start charging, about a pound.

4. Street Based Workers

The outreach workers were varying there route by starting at a different place so that times at different points varied, this was proving to be interesting. The CAF training was a great help as they often met young people who needed help.
They were finding an over lap with the skate board project.
Richard Fletcher is going to join them on one of there Friday nights walks.
