The idea for the formation of a group to represent ALL youth work in the 3 parishes came from a discussion at an LJC meeting but was then taken forward by local youth workers. This is not an LJC initiative but we are grateful for their support.

:) Happy New Year to all. ST MARTINS YOUTH CLUB reopens this coming Friday at The St Martins Centre, 7.30 - 9.00. :rolleyes:

Happy Christmas to everyone. :)

Come on parents/grans/aunties/carers - have some peace at home - encourage young people to take part in our activities. We have some great activities organised in St Martins, Weston Rhyn and Gobowen.

Lovely to see the all the new equipment on the park in full use and kids of all ages enjoying themselves

Thanks to all who supported the Coffee Morning - some new faces and £45 in the kitty!!

Saturday May 12th - Coffee Morning - 11.00 - 2.00

Thanks to Keith for his help last night. Anyone else interested in meeting us and joining in our activities? Next Friday 7.30 - 9.00 at The St Martins Centre.

A couple of issues from the meeting....mentioned several times the misleading nature of some of the press output.....focus on the headline (£million) not the substance(research/resilience/discussion). Ah well, some people prefer more froth than beer. Social media include more than those on ICT. (coffee mornings-garden gate chat etc) Clearly some at the meeting use nothing else than the computer, fine but we are working for all age groups and many older folk are still not comfortable with the machines. Any message going out needs, say, three media. Also, still the problem of far too slow webspeeds (less than 1/2 mbps on this one, sometimes down to dial-up!) The issue of BIG money supplementing County cash is very salient. Will need plenty of thinking here. Especially when Kevin from County Training mentioned there was no money to transport trainees to the nearest trainer!!!! That used to be guaranteed. What has been achieved so far? Well, a fair bit but the most important stuff is the learning. We are only just getting the idea of what the long term money is for. Try Googling "Resilient Communities" and see some of the stuff going on around the world. Well, back to the beer.....not the froth!

I agree with Maggie - lets change the THEY to WE!

Save fuel - Catch a train if you can!

Youth Club closed for 2 weeks over Easter. Back on April 20th at 7.30pm.

Any chance the new news can go first instead of having to scroll down?

Had a great afternoon playing basketball, football, cricket and badminton.

Book Box is open this Saturday March 17th from 11.00am to 2.00pm and then every other Saturday. If you attend a meeting or event at The St Martins Centre please feel free to check out the shelves and sign out a book if you find one you are interested in. You are also welcome to come along on any Youth Club evening (Fridays 7.30 - 9.00 term times only). Thanks to St Martins Parish Council and LJC we are in the process of buying new book cases so choosing a book should become easier. You will be able to see the vast range of fiction and non fiction books along with a selection for children and teenagers. Our stock of puzzles seems to be growing - Sue and Judi enjoying the task of completing each one so as to check for missing pieces!!!! Looking forward to seeing you all!!

Over 40 young people come to ST MARTINS YOUTH CLUB on a Friday evening at 7.30 - 9.00. We meet at The St Martins Centre and would welcome some extra help. Can you coach Pool or Table tennis? Have you got the odd Friday evening to sit and chat or help run the tuck shop? Interested? Call Sue and Nick on 774097 or come along to The St Martins Centre.

We have been running St Matins Youth Club for over 18 years and have been based at The St Martins Centre since it opened. Our average weekly attendance is over 40 so yes we would love some help! Activities include pool/table tennis/Wii/PS3/Computer room/crafts etc. FRIDAY 7.30 - 9.00. Looking forward to seeing you Keith and anyone else who would like to give us a hand! :)

Book Box is open next on Saturday November 12th at 11.00 am. Come along for coffee and a chat as well as borrowing a book.
