- When did you first meet?
Chris: "It was about four years ago. Jemma came to one of our open-access evenings with a group of friends. She was in year 8 at school at the time and seemed to really enjoy it and kept coming back."
Jemma: "Some of my friends used to come here and I thought I would go along to see what it was like. I found it fun so I kept coming."
- What projects have you been involved in?
Jemma: "I've done loads since I've been here. There have been cooking projects and team-building exercises as well as residentials. Recently, I've been involved with the youth worker group, where older young people help out at the club. I'm also part of the youth opportunity fund (YOF) panel and get to do lots of stuff like checking application forms."
