New initiative to give young people their community voice

In response to concerns from residents, particularly in the Deneside and Eastlea areas, believe housing has awarded a £30,000 community grant to launch a new youth initiative and improve the look and feel of streets in those neighbourhoods.

The Youth Connect Seaham project, which will be delivered by Groundwork North East and Cumbria, will provide free, fun and educational activities for 11 to 17-year-olds.
