THE official opening of a youth club at the Brookfarm Community Centre will take place next week.

A pool table, basketball and other activities will be on offer at the centre, in Pickersleigh Road, when it opens at 3.30pm on Friday November 21. There will also be a snack bar selling food and drinks.

There had been fears the centre would have to close and the youth club is one of the measures suggested to revitalise it.

The youth club, which costs 20p to attend, is aimed at 12-16 year olds, but all youngsters are welcome. For more information, contact Pauline Striplin on 07771807436.
