Progress on the Youth Front

(Joel Bowd, who along with Amy Hillier is leading the youth on the new forum).
Over the Autumn period Henbury will see the setting up of it's first ever 'Youth Forum'. This will give young people the chance to think about what it means to belong to a community and will provide an outlet for them to share their views. A representative from each year at Henbury School, the youth centre and the voluntary run youth groups will all be invited to take part and as things develop pupils who live in Henbury/Brentry but go to school outside the area will also be invited.
The 'old fogies' getting things up and running are PC Nick Merrick of Henbury School and Paul Thompson of Emmanuel Chapel, with guidance from Sam Parker of Bristol City Council. Watch this space.
