 Young People Protest Outside Leinster House to Warn Government Against Making Any Further Cuts to Youth Services
Young People from The Base Ballyfermot say: “Don’t Skip our Future - Is it not worth €12 a week?”
A number of young people staged a protest outside the Dail today to warn the Government that any further cuts in funding for youth services will threaten their futures and also seriously damage local communities.
The young people posed standing in rubbish skips while dressed in costumes representing some of the future careers they aim towards.
They said they want to send a clear message to Government which is: “Don’t Skip Our Future. - Don't Put Young People on the Scrapheap."
The young people taking part in event were part of the Dublin Focus on Youth Campaign which is a coalition of nearly 70 youth services that receive funding from the City of Youth Service Board (CDYSB). This included young people from the The Base Ballyfermot. Click here for full story  focus_on_dublin_youth 687.04 Kb or click read more to continue reading
