The Choice and Opportunities On-Line (COO-L) scheme that ended in June, gave young people aged between 12 and 16 £15 bursaries each month to book activities of their choice from a website.
Camden Council is relaunching the website in September with £270,000. The scheme was previously run as part of a one-year pilot that operated in the London boroughs of Tower Hamlets and Camden but came to an end in June. It followed the shelving of the government's youth opportunity card, which was set to be run along similar lines.
