clubs. 2R’crc Youth is a voice for the needs of more than 100 young
people in Wolverhampton and a champion for their youth clubs and the
vital work they carry out in our communities.
Every year 2R’s CRC Youth helps with
advice, training and practical day to day help. This year 50 young
adults became effective youth workers through taking part in our
training programmes. We recruited and supported around 25 young people
to become volunteers. We organised sports, arts and cultural events
across the Wolverhampton. Our centre provided subsidised activity
programmes for over 100 children.
WY WE DO IT
Young people are our future and we want them to have the best
possible start so they become confident and responsible citizens. We
want youth work to be carried out in a professional way and to the
highest standards. Our aim is to broaden young people's skills and
interests, to encourage their enthusiasm and to inspire them to reach
their true potential.

in learning music, vocals, Some of them are more interested in various
sports activities and computers etc Very few have their interest in
Theatre, acting and making video films. They gather once a week in
groups at a centre and practice their part of interest.
