Down at My Club: The Prospex Youth Club @ Williamson Street, Highbury, London

Youth Work
The youth club has only been running since May but I already look forward to going every Monday. Some friends from my area were going and it sounded like fun so I went along too.

They have loads of stuff to do here that I don't have at home. There's a pool table, table tennis, and we sometimes have a DJ. This month we started learning street dance with a local dance teacher, which I've really enjoyed. I also like playing on Wii Sports with my friends. We go on trips sometimes - some of us went to Alton Towers over the summer.

If I wasn't here, I'd just be hanging out on the estate. My friends and I ride our bikes and play football after school, but it can get boring. I've made a lot of new friends here who I'm not sure I would ever have met otherwise and the volunteers are really nice. I think everyone should go to a youth club if they can, it's really good fun.
