Are you a young person or a parent/guardian living in or around Thornton Heath (CR7)? Are you concerned about the rise in youth violence? Do you want to find out more about what services are open to young people in our community? Or are you simply interested in helping to address the challenges of youth violence?

We're all aware of the rise in violence in our community and the need to bring together the people who can shape the change – you. This event is designed to put young people and parents at the forefront of a response to youth violence in Thornton Heath.

This platform has been created for you to voice your concerns and contribute towards developing a structured programme of activities, to be led by young people in the community. There will also be the opportunity to learn about the activities and support available to young people in the local area. Come and chat to the youth organisations offering a range of services such as training, mentoring, counselling, tutoring and more.

CR7 Youth Open Day is a local, grass roots response to what’s happening in our community, and it needs you to be part of it. Sign up to attend here or for more information please email cr7youth@gmail.com

An agenda will follow shortly.
