I go twice a week, on Tuesdays and Thursdays. There's snooker, pool, table tennis, an Xbox, and keyboards to play music. I sometimes help out with setting up table tennis and the tuck shop, and we also play rounders with some of the younger kids.
I've recently been elected young person's representative for the youth club's adult committee, which involves presenting young people's ideas about what facilities they'd like at the club. I put myself forward and had to work hard for it, and I really enjoy giving young people a voice. I'm also a young leader with the Scouts.
