Create more activity centres for young people around Ruislip.

Rejected 9 signatures

What the petition asks

I would like the government to fund an activity centre in the local area of Ruislip so that teenagers have access to a place that they can go to take part in physical activity for free outside of education.
I feel that teenagers should be able to have a place that they can go to for free to take part in managed activities outside of school. Having place like this in Ruislip could bring the community closer together and turn teenagers away from other negative activity they may be taking part in out of school.
