Simon Burnett presented a report dealing with Sefton Council’s Youth service and youth engagement mechanisms. The report set out details of the Team, staffing and activities carried out, much work being carried out in the evenings in order to engage as many young people as possible.

As part of the youth offer across the borough the Council commissioned the following providers to deliver sessions and activities:

·       Bootle Youth and Community Centre

·       Brunswick Youth Centre

·       Litherland Youth and Community Centre

·       Netherton Park Community Centre

·       Parenting 2000 (Crosby and Southport)

·       Sefton CVS (SYMBOL and Youth Voice)

·       Sing Plus

·       SPACE (MYA)

·       St Leonards Youth and Community Centre

·       Woodvale and Ainsdale Community Association

·       YCP

·       YKids

In addition, schools were considered key to engaging with young people and the youth team worked closely with education settings and created programs that would educate young people in healthy relationships and safe activities.

RESOLVED: That the report be noted.
