The town needs a wider and improved range of activities for young people. Venues for bands - gigging, rehearsing and recording studios would be a great addition to facilities.

  Before anything else needs to be done the facilities for young people need improving. As soon as they go to university most never come back. Invest in the youth they are Abergele's tomorrow.

  ENCOURAGE YOUNGSTERS TO WORK ON THE GWRYCH ESTATE IF IT'S ONLY DOING ADMIN OR LIGHT WORK, MAKE THEM PROUD OF THEIR TOWN AGAIN. TOO MUCH VANDALISM AND PARENTS SHOULD DIRECT YOUNGSTERS TO GET INVOLVED. We arrange private tours all over North Wales and bring a great deal of revenue to the area. Our groups have attended en mass the Gwrych Castle Open Days this year, every one of them and we have been overwhelmed by the effort and the work that is going on there by the Gwrych Castle Preservation Trust. Who are now jointly in partnership at last and able to do something with this wonderful estate to help it after years of ownership issues. The latest owners have made the Trust their partners and they are leasing the Estate to the Trust at last. We will be there encouring tourists to Abergele and bringing a lot of revenue to Abergele if the powers that be at Conwy Council will at last do something to support this magestic landmark and not keep dismissing it. Thousands of people are supporting the Trust and it is worldwide. We get visitors from overseas all the time asking to attend Gwrych Castle and now we can offer them something thanks to the Trust doing their events. We will be there again on the 23rd of August offering our support as tourists and booking coaches of tourists to attend all their events. Why is it that Conwy Council have not helped more and you now have your chance to do the right thing and to do all possible to back the Gwrych Castle Trust who are an organised and forward thinking Charity to further their aim and bring a landmark back to life in Abergele. Cannot praise their efforts enough and it's remarkable to see such hard work going on with Staff, Volunteers and Trustees. Who give their time freely to help Abergele. Back them please and let's get this show on the road. The Trust have the power to make a difference and they need you Conwy Council. So do we. My childhood holidays were spent in Abergele. Nothing there now and we want those good times back and relive our memories at Gwrych with our Grandchildren! Make it happen! Thank you.

  Youth and Conmmunity Centre next door to the Library was bubbling with young people, two nights of youth club and one night of Aelwyd. We need something for the youths of Abergele, so they can be proud to say they came from Abergele, and also keep them off the streets. Maybe not a youth club, but certainly something....not all children can afford to go to the Leisure Centre. Itaca workd really well with children, they loved the venue.

  Bring back Aelwyd Abergele!

  The young people of Abergele, must not be left out in the regeneration for Abergele Abergele. I believe that ideas being asked here are taken to the youth of Abergele directly in the schools if that is not already happening and ask them what they want.
  I think you find they want facilities that will allow them to express themselves through Music and art and sport.

  Make use of the buildings lying empty like the old Church House.
