| On the streets
We are both 16 years old and we both live in Miles Platting. We feel it has got much better recently. Most of the young people go to the library, youth clubs, local parks, swimming baths or just hang out on streets. The main things we would like to see change in Miles Platting are more activities for the girls and more trips out with youth workers. We feel sorry for the older generation as they are sometimes scared to come out whilst young people are on the streets, but this is unnecessary and they shouldn’t feel scared in their own area. We don’t dislike them, we just think that some of them moan a bit too much. We have looked and read about Miles Platting back in days gone by, in books and leaflets at our local library. All around Miles Platting has changed a lot and we think it has changed for the better but could still do with a little bit more. As well as the places we’ve mentioned that people can go to, quite near to where we live are the tennis centre, stadium and velodrome. Natalie & Jade |
