Supporting Young People

The report highlights the need for improved coordination among organizations supporting youth in Harpenden and the St. Albans district. Key focus areas include enhancing youth facilities, increasing youth engagement, and developing activities that cater to young people's interests. Initiatives such as the establishment of a youth café in Redbourn and a mobile youth shelter in Rothamsted have been introduced, with significant community input. Funding has been allocated to various projects aimed at addressing mental health, skills development, and youth unemployment to better serve the needs of local youth.
