East Hampshire gives Horndean Youth a helping hand
Councillor Mrs Dorothy Denston presented a cheque for £2000 to the Horndean Independent Youth Association. In turn she was presented with a card signed by all the young people and volunteers as a mark of their appreciation.
The youth Club is based at Merchestoun Hall in Horndean and is run solely by volunteers. The youth group aims to provide safe, social meeting places for young people. The funding will pay towards running costs and will also go towards replacing some worn out equipment.
The club is open on a Friday evening between 7pm -9.30pm for young people aged between 11-16.
