Donate to save our community youth centre

Hello my name is billi and I’m a local lad living out in the Matchborough side of Redditch 4 years ago when I first started exploring Redditch we discovered a youth center that was open to all types of people of age, ethnicity and needs, our fist session was amazing we played football for 2 hours as paid for by the lovely your workers Hayley, miss gaspar, Jhon and Ben no matter after football we had the chance to go into the youth center to play pool, Xbox and darts we were even offered a meal cooked by Jhon while we were there. All this activity and stuff they offer is provided out of there small budget and they only charge us kids 50p per session 2 days a week. I’ve been going every Friday for 4 years now and over the 4 years we lost football on a Tuesday due to the lack of money and funding they are now only able to provide food in the holidays and we are limited to football only in a Friday we have found out just recently that’s the funding they gave received will be only enough to keep our youth center open till August the 31st we would need to raise 7 thousand pounds to keep us open to Christmas then more money every term to keep it going, if we can’t find the funding or support to keep this going we will lose our youth center on the 31st August 2025 we ask that if you may donate even a little amount it would really help keep them going and to keep young kids like us of the streets and have a safe space to go if we need.

thank you for listening
