Introduction

The purpose of this report is to recommend ways to improve Croydon Youth Centre to make it more attractive to young people.

Group Activities

To begin with, the social activities offered by the centre are extremely limited. I would recommend holding regular functions so as to encourage interaction between local youths.

Secondly, the centre rarely organises field trips. I am confident that the addition of regular outings would make the centre more popular with teenagers.

Food

Currently, the cafeteria is greatly underused. For this reason, I would suggest offering food such as chicken burgers that appeal to young people while still being healthy. Furthermore, the cafeteria prices are far too expensive. We could reduce our prices to encourage young people to purchase food on our premises.

Opening/Closing Times

Although the centre is open throughout the week, it does not operate at times that are convenient for teenagers. One suggestion would be to extend the hours of the centre on a Friday evening, making it far more accessible to young people.

Finally, the centre is closed at weekends. I strongly recommend opening the centre on Saturdays when youths have more free time.

Conclusion

On the whole, I believe that additional group activities, better food options and longer opening hours would improve the appeal of the youth centre, especially.
