DescriptionDay 243 - West Midlands Police - Funding for mobile youth centre (7900207250).jpg |
This photo shows a mobile youth bus that was purchased and decked out thanks to funding from West Midlands Police. A community youth project bought and renovated the mobile youth bus thanks to a donation from West Midlands Police. Erdington youth charity Urban Devotion Birmingham applied for funding through the Proceeds of Crime Act earlier this year. This funding stream sees cash seized from criminals pumped back into the local community. The charity used the £12,500 funding to purchase a van before working with local young people to redesign the interior and exterior and deck it out with state-of-the-art audio and visual equipment. The van is now being used by the charity as a mobile youth centre. Staff from Urban Devotion Birmingham regularly drive the van to various locations across Perry Common and Erdington to provide a safe and educational area for young people to meet and learn new skills. The unit is also being used in partnership with police to offer positive youth engagement around areas where anti-social behaviour has been reported. Young persons officer, PC Paul Emms, said: “The police donation will not only benefit Urban Devotion Birmingham, but the hundreds of individuals and groups that are set to benefit from the mobile youth centre. “The mobile centre provides state-of-the-art equipment and learning which ordinarily may not be available to young people across Erdington.” |
