I think Myplace would be a fantastic facility for young people in Croydon as we have one of the highest portion of children and young people amongst london boroughs . There are wonderful examples of other boroughs who have already established their centres such as the Bolton Lads and Girls Club: www.boltonladsandgirlsclub.co.uk, and Salmon Youth Centre in Bermondsey: www.salmoncentre.co.uk. I strongly believe that young people should be involved in the development of the facility to ensure that the services provided meet their needs and wants.
