Young Peoples Comments
The best indication of judging the successes of the project are to ask the people themselves. We ask for positives as well as negatives as we are always looking to improve our services. The following are a selection of quotes written by young people when asked the following questions about the project in a recent questionnaire:

I like the laptops because you are aloud to go on anything you like
playing table tennis with my mates and sometimes workshops
