Rapid developments supporting young people
The villages of Selattyn & Gobowen, St Martin’s and Weston Rhyn, have taken a partnership approach to identifying the needs of young people from the area aged between 10 and 17. The 3 Parishes Youth Association (3PYA) seek to improve youth provision across the area and commissioned Shropshire Youth Association (SYA) to undertake research to establish what young people thought would improve life for them in their communities.
A survey was designed and trialled with young people from the SYA Youth Management Group: Shropshire Shout, was approved by the 3PYA youth leaders and then carried out by Shropshire Shout, with the SYA Participation Worker. The survey was undertaken on an informal interview basis with young people: at the youth clubs in St Martin’s and Weston Rhyn and at the Play Day event in Gobowen, at Weston Rhyn and Selattyn Primary and Rhyn Park Secondary Schools between July and September 2011. The survey was also available on line and completed by a local Scout Troop.
A summary of the findings from 117 completed surveys has been formulated into a report and presented to the 3PYA; a draft report was shared with the Local Joint Committee. The results will be used by the 3PYA and local representatives to inform Shropshire Council and the newly developed Big Local Trust: which has been set up to manage a £1 million grant programme for the area over the next 10 years.
More fun based sporting opportunities have been requested by the young people in the area, so the 3PYA organized a free multi-activity sports session at Rhyn Park School Sports Hall last Saturday. All local young people were invited to the event. It was a working in partnership with the Shropshire Council Leisure Services Team who provided sports coaching. Volunteers were on hand to further develop young people’s ideas.
Nick Heard chair of the 3PYA said “It is fabulous to be working as a partnership across the 3 villages. 3PYA are extremely grateful to our Local Joint Committee for contributing £300.00 towards this project and for SYA for undertaking the research. We will use it as a benchmark for future activities.” If anyone would like more information please contact Nick Heard on 774097.__________________________________________________________________

St Martins, Gobowen, Weston Rhyn
The 3PYA was formed recently to enable the sharing of facilities between villages and to generate more volunteers by offering mentoring opportunities. The group is supported by the relevant Parish Councils, the local County Councillor and the Shropshire Youth Association.
A recent survey carried out by Shropshire Youth Association indicated that there were enough young people in the 10 – 12 year old age range to support weekly sessions in the villages.
The St Martins Centre is the base for meetings with various activities including jewellery making, music making, art activities, origami, and cricket.
The project is funded by St Martins Youth Club and Crime Reduction Partnership with an application made to LJC. Some of the funding is specifically to pay for transport to bring young people from Gobowen and Weston Rhyn to St Martins.
