Kez Salmon is very dedicated to this project which is obviously already making a big impact on the community, It would be a shame for all the hardwork which has already gone into RedYouth to have to end due to funding. i hope this project continues to be a success!

I love seeing children who live in Redruth mixing together and working as one team and as individuals.......most of them would otherwise never of met if it wasn't for 'REDYOUTH' due to many reasons, largely being their social and economic backgrounds, or simply attending different schools in the area. Redruth has had much bad press in recent times and i feel so pround of 'our children' for showing that with guideance, support and direction they are a generation to be proud of and if 'REDY

RedYOUth is so important to Redruth it's hard to explain! Our town is ignored by so many politicians and as a result has fallen into decline. There are no services for young people and as a result they have been given a bad name for allegedly "terrorising the streets" at night. Through Kez's vision, Redruth's young people have been given a fantastic opportunity to do something that they love, keep active and healthy, and possibly find themselves a future career. Winning this bid would give the n

Cornwall needs something like this to bring the young community together, and with Kerry leading the way, its a sure fire success as she is such a driven and motivated person!

What better way for keeping children and young people busy and happy. My son has been going for a while now and it would be a real shame to loose such a great asset to our town. A brilliant way to express feelings, channel energy and make lasting friendships.

Great project to empower and help integrate deprived women

I have added my vote and wish redyouth the best of success for the years to come. Its a great opportunity for young people. Well done kez and her team.

The people involved in this should be proud of themselves. Inspirational.

23-Oct-2009 11.58AM   Kayleigh Bray Says...

This is such a wonderful group of young people, and a dedicated volunteer group of adults that they deserve to gain the funding they desperately need. The potential of every young person in this group is boundless and they should be afforded the right to express themselves, become proud of their community and their individuality.

23-Oct-2009 10.38AM   Donna Hamilton Says...

I am so proud of you ker for all your hard work that you and the rest of the team have done for the young people of Redruth. Keep it up girl love ya mum xx

Come on folks, support these kids - we're quick enough to blame them when something goes wrong, so how bout LOADs of support for those who are showing the adults that they WANT to do something positive with their time - and with FAB results!! Go Redyouth!!!

My daughter has spent a lot of time in hospital and lost her confidence.Since joining REDyouth her confidence is extremely high and she loves it. She even used her dancing skills to enter a competition on holiday and got through to the finals. Redruth is a deprived area and there is not much for young people to do so REDyouth is essential to the area and the level of commitment from the organizers is amazing.

i`m glad to hear about this youth project as i`m a cornish man (helston boy) who now lives in ireland, it`s about time we started giving something back to the younger generation, for they are the future.

22-Oct-2009 8.55AM   E G-Harris Says...

i would like to add my vote for Redyouth and the team. Funding is the key to future-proofing the project.

22-Oct-2009 6.09AM   Jude Robinson Says...

RedYOUth is fun and fabulous. Showing kids how talented they are so they feel good about themselves too. Well done for all the hard work that goes in to it.

21-Oct-2009 9.32PM   Kez Salmon Says...

I have been moved to tears by your comments. Thank you so much for all your support. Lets hope we win some funding to keep us going and give us the boast we need xx

Hi all i would like to add my vote for Redyouth. I hope all goes well for the kids and the team behind it.

16-Oct-2009 1.31PM   Emma Stephens Says...

A brilliant idea for an area that needs something badly! I am fully behind this idea and think it could prove to be the one thing our area needs to get 'back on it's feet' so the kids don't have to follow in the footsteps of previous wrong doers.

15-Oct-2009 11.51AM   Wendy Clark Says...

Kez and her associates have been working so hard to achieve all that they have so far. They have a long way to go to achieve their ongoing goals. Without Redyouth the crime rate across mid Cornwall would be much much higher and drug taking amongst youngsters would also be on the increase. Redyouth has given Cornish youngsters a sense of purpose and self worth. We need more people like Kez and her team across Cornwall and the rest of Britain. Redyouth need all the help they can get to provide the

Hi ker I think that this is excellent news for Redyouth and all the young people that will be involved in all the activities. Congratulations to you and every one that have worked really hard to continue this, and get the funding that is well deserved.

13-Oct-2009 10.57AM   Barbara Ellenbroek REdruth Town Mayor Says...

I fully support this as Kez is doing a brillant job in working with young people, giving them skills and abilities that they would not otherwise have. Our young people are our future, we need to support them to make positive contributions to their community and raise their self-esteem.

12-Oct-2009 10.30PM   Garry Kay Says...

There are many youths in Redruth who are at a crossroads in life. They can follow their peers in a downward spiral of crime and anti-social behaviour or they can take advantage of people like Kez Salmon, who passionately believes that today's young people are good at heart and, if given an opportunity to express themselves in a creative and caring environment can flourish and become valued and fully integrated members of our socity. I wholeheartedly support this project and its committed leader.

12-Oct-2009 10.29PM   Patricia Thomas Says...

Its a wonderful way to bring groups of young people together to show them a positive way of life and happiness, and it seems to be working.

12-Oct-2009 9.23PM   Maria Jory Says...

Both of my daughter's are member's of RedYOUth and since they started I have seen they're self esteem and confidence grow no end. They really love going to the classes and are always saying what fun they have. Whilst there I know they are safe and amongst friends and above all off the streets.

12-Oct-2009 9.22PM   Ginny Kay Says...

This project is essential for the young people of Redruth. I wholeheartedly support the work of Red YOUth and hope it will continue. Funding is key for the project to go from strength to strength.

Redruth has often been in the news locally and nationally for the wrong reasons. RedYOUth, started up in response to last year's curfew set on the town which made national news. I would like to thank RedYOUth for giving young people the opportunity to learn new skills and make new friends in a safe, friendly and enjoyable environment. All Kids deserve a bright future and RedYOUth gives them just that. Without RedYOUth these youngsters wouldn't have anywhere else to go. RedYOUth gives young peop

I have been following Redyouth for a while now and am amazed at the level of commitment from the members and on going fantastic support and work put in by everyone. They have done nothing but good for the region, giving the young people something good to channel there energy into, which in today's world is a great thing. So a hugely deserved well done and Thank you for giving your all to such a fantastic cause. Keep up the good work, which no doubt you will. They are our future and a reflectio

it would be so good to get this funding the kids need something to interest them and keep them out of trouble

12-Oct-2009 6.31PM   Mrs Amber Jouvenaar Says...

I think this project is a great facility for the kids in this area to have available.there is not much in this area for kids to do and we also get alot of bad press about young people.So for there to be somewhere kids can go and do somthing worth while is brilliant.My daughter has been there a while and it has given her more confidenceand she has made lots of friends and i know she is somewhere safe.I think that this project should be given the funding to keep going.

12-Oct-2009 6.09PM   Flip Morris Says...

What a good idea. Good to see some proactive stuff going on for young people.

12-Oct-2009 5.01PM   Janet Evans Says...

This is an amazing opportunity to provide the area in Cornwall that had the curfew imposed on it's young people last year, back together as a community, channelling energies otherwise wasted towards something fulfilling and offering the chance to turn around lives forever.
