Petition Allow youth clubs to remain open during future restrictions
Students still have to go to school. This can cause stress to some people and when they return home they have nowhere to go to let their feelings out, so it gets worse and worse. But youth clubs are places where children are supported through hard times, and this helps children’s mental wellbeing.
More details
Many children don't understand why the schools are still open as it’s not really a proper lockdown then. But if kids must stay in school then they should be allowed to go somewhere after school to sort any problems they have with the youth worker etc. Young people with exams upcoming can go to the youth club for help with revision and motivating them to do well.
