In todays session we looked at what would be needed in the myplace building, we split it in to what is essential, what is needed to capture the attention of young people, what we need to make them return and a wishlist of things that may be too expensive or unrealistic. Some of the things that may be too expensive would be good to do so there is the possibility that day trips could be organised to places eg. a swimming pool, the zoo.
We made a list of problems with the building, some of these were whether or not to have an outside space and whether or not we were willing to compromise the indoor space to make room. Another of the problems that may occur is that because the centre is for young people aged between 11 and 24 younger kids maybe be frightened away by the thought of lots of enormous teenagers and older kids may not want to hang around with loads of little kids. From these problems we thought of questions to ask young people so they could help us find solutions. The last thing we did was to come up with some statements that we can present to members of the council at a meeting.
