Press Release - Myplace in Doncaster |
South Yorkshire Youth given £20 Million worth of OpportunitiesA trio of state-of-the-art youth hubs funded by multi-million pound Government grants will soon give the young people of South Yorkshire a place to call their own. Myplace in Doncaster, a Doncaster Metropolitan Borough Council project, has been awarded a £5 million grant to build two youth centres. The Bentley Hub, near Doncaster town centre, will feature a skatepark, café, dance studio, outdoor games area and multimedia facilities including a recording studio, while The Spoke, in nearby Conisbrough, will have multi-use activity rooms and space for vocational training and accredited learning. Activities at the centres, ranging from music, dance and drama to hockey and football, will target young people aged 13-19, with specific focus on those who are disabled, rurally isolated or from deprived backgrounds. Support services on a range of issues, including physical mental and sexual health, will be offered to vulnerable users. Raheel Khan, 22, added: “We’ll have somewhere safe to go and do positive activities in our spare time. The area has needed something like this for such a long time, I can’t believe that it’s actually going to happen.” Total Awards: £5,000,000 |
