YOUTH groups, sports clubs and other organisations are being asked to help complete a survey of activities available to young people.

Darlington Borough Council's youth service is carrying out a survey for youngsters in the town.

Letters have been distributed to a variety of groups, asking them for their help.

The exercise will allow the service to compare youth activity provision with last year.

Councillor Cyndi Hughes, cabinet member for children and young people, said: "I would encourage everyone who provides positive activities for young people to respond to the survey or to get in touch with the team."

Forms need to be returned by Friday, May 27. For details, contact Joanne Shutt on 01325480055 or email joanne.shutt@darlington.gov.uk.
