West Townsville Youth Development Project

The West Townsville Youth Development Project, which has been operating since 2003, is funded by the Queensland Government's Community Renewal program and delivered in partnership with Townsville City Council.

The objectives of the West Townsville Youth Development Project are to provide opportunities for young people living in Heatley, Vincent, Currajong and Gulliver to participate in community life.

• Youth Zone Program
• Youth Crew Program

Youth Zone Program

Youth Zone is a program to allocate safe, fun and supervised spaces for young people in West Townsville. These include Heatley Community Centre, Heatley, Cambridge and other local parks, schools, and public facilities. To finalise the program, Youth Zone will be held at 5 parks over 5 weeks in June, 2009. Flyers will be distributed via letterbox drop one week prior to each event.
 

Youth Crew Program

The West Townsville Youth Crew members are young residents who volunteer to participate at community events, and in various community activities. The Youth Crew are volunteering with Volunteering North Queensland at the next Friday Flicks event to be held at Heatley Park on Friday 3 July, 2009.

The project finishes at the end of June 2009.
