Warwick Extended Services Cluster held consultations with parents of children attending Woodloes School, local agencies and councillors, and it was highlighted that there was a lack of provision for young people, and more needed to be done to promote community spirit.

A year-round weekly youth club was then commissioned at The Gap Community Centre in Oakwood Grove for children in years five and six of primary school.

Cllr Moira-Ann Grainger (Con, Warwick North), said: “The opening of the youth club is the result of all partners working together and listening to both our residents and young people aspirations.”
