Another model out-of-school club in Leeds is to be opened by minister for international development Hillary Benn. It has been created through a partnership between Leeds City Council and Nestle UK. The club at Woodhouse Community Centre, which is the first of its type in the north of England, will test new ways of offering out-of-school provision to 11- to 16-year-olds and provide a place where young people can relax, study and take part in a range of activities. The 2.5m Make Space campaign is run by the Kids' Clubs Network in partnership with Nestle UK and aims to create a network of 3,000 clubs across the country. Recent research by the Nestle Family Monitor on behalf of the Make Space campaign found that 60 per cent of teenagers and 80 per cent of parents think that young people do not have enough to do in the area where they live.
