13 - 19 summer activities programme

13 - 19 RESPECT poster design competition

Thursday, October 01 2009

The 13-19 summer activities programme was used to raise awareness of the RESPECT agenda among young people living in our neighbourhoods. Encouraging young people to be considerate to the needs of others around them and care about their community. We also wanted to provide activities for young people over the summer holidays.

Young people took part in a poster design competition to design a poster that could be used for advertising the RESPECT agenda to other residents. Discussions took place around young people’s ideas of what is a nice neighbourhood to live in and what respect means to young people. This generated discussions among friends and helped the young people recognise what impact vandalism, graffiti etc. has to the rest of the community they live in. They also designed their own RESPECT t-shirts.
