The Project Management Committee is made up almost entirely by young people. For many years, the Project has successfully supported young people to take on considerable management responsibility. We feel the direct involvement of local young people in running the Project drives it to be innovative and responsive to local needs. to maximise the involvement of young people in managing resources and agreeing effective responses to the needs of all potential users in the Project area. The Project's annual general meeting and the election of young people to the Management Committee for the coming year will be held on Tuesday 15th May at 6.00 in the Project.
