Space and Activity

Something else that seems quite profound is that the green space adjacent to the Brewery was mentioned as somewhere that the youth club would like to use for events, barbecues and so forth in the warmer weather. However this cannot happen because of health and safety reasons.
There is an opportunity here to work toward a better external community space, that can be used for such events. The phrase 'children lining the street on Mayday' springs to mind as something to be reinterpreted through this greenspace that runs a considerable length along Cambridge Street.

There is an opportunity for these much needed activities to inform the development of spaces and vice versa. Dialogue is needed to make these sorts of needed changes happen. Even for the right for the youth club to able to initially use these spaces temporarily without risk.
