LITCHAM  YOUTH  PROJECT

Report for Litcham Parish Annual Meeting held on 24th April 2006

The Litcham Youth Project (also known as The Groovy Movers!) started in July 2005. Many of the teenagers in he Village look forwards to their Thursday evenings in the Jubilee Hall. The Project is run by two youth and Community workers from Breckland Council and four volunteers, Diane Collen, Sadie Bailey, Sharon More and myself.
We have table tennis kindly donated by the Reverend Boston, a pool table, bought with a donation from the Fireworks Committee, a television donated by Litcham High Scholl and a Playstation 2 bought with a donation from Litcham Parish Council. At a few fund raising venues in the village the members have been invited along to man their own stall and have raised funds which have allowed us to buy extras, including a table tennis net, bats and table tennis balls. A donation was given by Mr and Mrs Bevan, who have encouraged the Project from the beginning.
We try to plan a different theme every week and have had a table tennis competition and have flipped pancakes and made cakes to name just a few. In the future we are planning a trip to Fakenham Bowling Alley and hope to go to Pleasurewood Hills sometime during the summer season. All these things take time and planning, especially when you have to carry out Risk assessments.
As the Project seems to be a success we would hope that we could rely on the continuing support of the Parish Council. A big thank you to everyone who has helped us either with donations or with their time.

Judith Bently. Voluntary worker at Litcham Youth Project.
