The Streetwise Project Workers offer young people who attend the Hub a chance to have their say.  

Each week, they will ask those who attend to choose what they would like to eat. The young people then shop for healthy ingredients.  After that they prepare the food to cook for themselves and their peers. 

There are also engaging and fun activities including board games and a Playstation 5.

As the impacts of climate change intensify every year, more and more young people are joining the movement to take action and raise awareness to protect our planet and wildlife.

Eco Influencers provides opportunities for young people aged 10-18 to design and deliver their own environmental social action projects that really make a difference. From outdoor eco classrooms to mindfulness wildlife gardens and recycling campaigns, young people across the region are leading the way.
