Far reaching work continues to look at the issues and concerns of young people in the district and solutions for the future.
Delegates from a wide range of organisations from the voluntary, community and statutory sectors attended a special workshop at The Ark in December.
The meeting, organised by DDC and KCC, looked at priorities identified by young people and gathered feedback. Priority issues identified by young people included drugs, bullying, litter and transport.
All feedback has been taken into account in bringing together the Youth Strategy 2008-2012.
The draft Strategy is currently out for consultation and will be published later this year.
A Youth Strategy sub-group has been set up, and the Dover District Youth Forum is helping to progress this important work.
For more information about the Strategy or the Youth Forum, please contact DDC Youth Officer Yvonne Holder on (01304) 872153.
