 WVYP has published the first Young People's Guide to Bagshot, Lightwater and Windlesham. The idea for the booklet came from a survey and feedback from young people. The Guide lists things to do and clubs young people can join in the Windle Valley, as well as pointing to a heap of useful information and help about health and safety.
You can pick-up a copy of the Guide in some local shops (and hopefully soon the libraries) or download it from the Clubs page. Huge thanks to Windlesham Parish Council for kindly contributing towards the costs. |

high sheriff awards hotspot £1000 for youth arts award |
|
 The High Sheriff visited Hotspot to award some of the young people £1000 towards their Youth Arts Award. The young people who visit the cafe are working towards their Bronze Youth Art Award. The Award comprises of 4 parts and the young people are working on part A.
The group is in the process of planning and designing a community calendar. The aim of the calendar is to challenge the often wrong perceptions of young people today. When you see a group of young people standing on the street corner, what is your first thought? “Are they going to mug me?” “I'm scared and afraid to go out!” Instead how about a group of young people who want to hang out with their friends but have no where to go. The calendar is going to include many of the community groups in Bagshot as part of the pictures. The young people have written to local businesses and community groups to invite them to take part in the project. A number of groups have already contacted Hotspot willing to participate in the calendar. The calendar should be ready for December. |
