On the ground: Down at my Club - Harthill Youth Centre, Liverpool

John Carmichael, 16, Harthill Youth Centre, Liverpool.

I started coming along to the Harthill Youth Centre about a year ago. I'm really into music and I volunteer at the creative sessions the club runs. It also runs band nights and I help book the bands and the venues where they play.

There's a session called Splice where young people with disabilities can come along and meet and make friends with able-bodied people. It's great fun.

Recently the club has run dance projects too, including one where you could learn Morris dancing.

There's lots to do here. The club has a sports hall and chill-out area with a TV. On Tuesdays, there's a drama club which is popular with young people who like performing.
