More than 50 young people attended a Local Youth Network (LYN) event in Westbury at the weekend, which showcased the opportunities available in the area.

The free event, held at Leigh Park Community Centre on Sunday, was open to young people aged 13-19 who took part in activities, ranging from baking to archery, as well as enjoying music and free pizza.

The event also included a visit from West Wilts Youth Sailing Association.

The day of fun was the first for Westbury’s LYN after Wiltshire council closed the area’s youth club last August.

Community youth officer Amy Schuring said: “As well as promoting LYN’s work, we talked to young people to find out what activities they’d like to see in the area.”
