Youth work is about young people getting the chance to take part in all sorts of activities – from things like arts, sports, music and drama to discussions and debates about important real-life issues such as education, sex, health, work, money, religion and the environment. Because not all these things can happen at the same time, youth workers and young people work together to decide on a programme for their centre. The programme is basically a plan of which activities will be on offer – when, where and how long for. For example, in one centre, the youth workers and young people may decide that for the next 3 months, Tuesdays will be a ‘drop-in night’ (open to all young people) where as Wednesdays will be a project night (open only to those who are interested in specific activities). They may then decide that these activities will be: MCing; Football; Computers and Dance.
