Rejected petition Stop Wiltshire Council Youth Service Cuts and Closures

More details

Scores of youth workers could face redundancy and youth clubs could close under Wiltshire Council plans to save £500,000 from its budget.

Officers for union Unite say they have seen documents that outline four proposals for change to youth workers at the meetings. There will then be a consultation period which will end on April 22 when the Wiltshire Council cabinet will make a decision.

In the worst case scenario the union says all 144 members of staff would be made redundant and 24 youth centres would close.

We need to act now. A decision will be made by Wiltshire Council on 22nd April 2014, if you want your local youth centre to remain without cuts then please sign this petition.

Young People need youth centres and youth workers always will.
