The youth arts audit aims to produce a snapshot of the activity that takes place in West Cheshire provided by the many arts, culture and youth organisations based in the county in the spring and summer of 2008– we hope it is a fair and balanced picture, giving a reasonable impression of the scale and scope of youth arts activities, organisations and opportunities – but it is not entirely exhaustive and does not claim to be.

  • Press Release March Weaverham High School
    PRESS RELEASE MARCH WEAVERHAM HIGH SCHOOL AWARDED CHAMPION STATUS Weaverham High School have been awarded champion school status for their involvement in National Citizen Service (NCS), a government-backed youth programme for teenagers. Weaverham High School received the status in recognition of the continued support given to the scheme, encouraging more than 50 students to take part in NCS, which helps young people develop a broad range of skills that have life-long value, such as leadership, team working, confidence, independent thinking and community responsibility. NCS is delivered in Cheshire West and Cheshire East by Youth Federation, a charity based in Ellesmere Port who are dedicated to improving the lives of young people and enabling them to thrive, regardless of their background or circumstance. “We’re delighted to offer ongoing support for NCS as we believe it plays a vital role in the development of our students as they transform into adulthood,” said Ann-Marie Morgan, NCS Area Manager at Youth Federation. Each of the Schools have been awarded the certificate, signed by the Prime Minister, from former NCS graduates at a special ceremony to mark the achievements of each champion school in the region. The graduate presenters, who hosted the event throughout, enthusiastically outlined the positive impact that NCS had on them and what they had gained by taking part. NCS is an opportunity open to all 16 and 17 year olds across England. Over the course of four weeks, participants spend time away from home experiencing outdoor life to its full, working with local businesses and charities to build new skills.
