Radyr Youth Centre

Cardiff County Council’s Budget proposal which includes the closure of Radyr Youth Centre. (response closed on the 13th Feb)

Extract from the budget statement:

Youth clubs will no longer be provided from: Radyr Youth Centre, plus provision at Creigiau and Gwaelod y Garth, Whitchurch Youth Centre plus provision at Tongwynlais, Llanishen Youth Centre, Ty Celyn Youth Centre, Howardian Youth Centre, Pentwyn Dome, Trowbridge , and Dusty Forge, Ely. Additionally we propose to reduce funding for open access youth provision at Cathays Community Centre. However, through the community building review we are planning to continue offering training for young people from the Dusty Forge; Duke of Edinburgh awards through school premises in North Cardiff; and street based and mobile youth services for the North of the City.

22nd February: There has been a reconsideration of the proposal and some youth activities may well be saved !
