Ms Amy Carey:

Youth work has a role and as Dr. Burke said, every young person should have access to youth work. It has a particular role in disadvantaged areas and it is probably a slightly different role and a slightly different type of youth work that needs to take place in those areas. However, youth work should not be contained in any one community. On resources, I spoke about young people having spaces in other parts of the country and in other cities. As well as having youth work provision, young people in every community should have a space they can call their own. Particularly in our part of the city, that has not been the case.
