The National Youth Agency: Access - What's changed

1 min read
What's Changed is a tool for groups to record the outcomes of participation by young people. Every other week we summarise an example of how young people have brought about change.

Organisation: Blackburn Youth Service, Adventure Learning Club

Issue: The need for an indoor cave facility

At a programme planning meeting some young people suggested caving. Potential problems were identified and after discussion it was agreed than an indoor facility would help address these and provide young people with the experience of caving. What children and young people said.
