Increase Funding for Existing Youth Clubs and Open New Youth Clubs Across the UK

Closed 759 signatures

What the petition asks

Violent crime has increased across the UK for reasons that trace back to a lack of funding. There are less places for our youth to go and socialise with people their own age in a controlled safe environment outside school hours in deprived areas. The boredom and distrust has encouraged more violence
