We are piloting and under 12's night at The Blue Box centre on Parks Estate. The first one will be on the 31st Oct. This project came about from one of our Derby University placements project idea. Lisa (The Derby Uni Student placement) had to write / plan a project for her course, the project would involve our young Belper School students, young people from the centre and both supervised by our voluntary youth workers to all help run a night for under 12's. Lisa has finished her placement now and has done very well. Everyone at the Drop Inn was in agreement that this is suck a good project which will help another big need in the community. With al of us in agreement we just needed to get together once Lisa had finished her coursework and plan the first night and where.
Now we have found an area that has a big need for it, and a community space located in the middle of the estate. The centre has agreed to let us use it for the under 12's night, so we have planned to do a halloween themed party at the first pilot which will land straight on the 31st of October. We will keep everyone up-to-date with how it all goes.
