YWCA

Early day motion 1624, tabled 13 February 2006 by Simon Hughes (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 154 members.

That this House recognises the invaluable work that YWCA undertakes with disadvantaged young women within its sixteen projects nationwide; firmly believes that young people enrich the world and deserve the provision of and investment in adequate recreational and informal learning facilities within their local communities; notes the need for every young woman to have the opportunity to attend some of this youth provision as women-only space to encourage the broadest participation in youth projects from all ethnicities, genders and sexualities; and calls on the Government to address the issue of provision of safe spaces for all young people as a matter of urgency.
