Just like to add the lads have done a terrific job this season and I would like them to keep on going to the end.    

Can you name the young people and tell us what they are doing now? The person who gets it right will get a surprise.

We are going to update regularly so watch this space  

Last Saturday, Ahmed Hassan, a young lad from Dewsbury, passed away.

Ahmed was stabbed in the back at Dewsbury train station. It is very sad that this young person who had so much to offer and was full of promise has been taken away. We feel deeply sorry for his family, friends and the community where he lived and went to school.

It is not exactly clear what happened in Ahmed's case, but it is reported that the attack was unprovoked. In general, it is so important for young people to know the dangers attached to carrying a knife. Having a knife doesn't protect you, but makes it more likely to be attacked.

On the following website you can find all kinds of advice on things like the dangers of carrying a knife, what to do when someone threatens you and how to deal with friends who carry knives.

Next Generation is taking part in the "My Space? Our Space!" program of BTCV. The program aims to create opportunities for young people to make a visible difference to local places and communities.

For this, Nxt Gen is working with young people on the Stanley Royd playing fields. As the Grammar School Foundation has licensed us to use the site, the idea is to create a great, accessible, attractive green space that will facilitate all kinds of activities. During half term we organised a big clean up with members of the community. We collected about 25 bin liners of rubbish, old bikes, tyres and all kinds. The day was finished with a traditional Nxt Gen barbecue.

BTCV has made a short film about this, which you can watch on:

The national launch of the program will take place in Wakefield on the 21st of November at the Town Hall.
