CHS 6 formers raised the issue of smokers/cigarette butts annoying Birch Rd residents. Students to research this a little more to find out the real issue. Could then use CEBC wardens if there is a real problem that needs addressing.
It was felt in general the youth issues in town / around are now being more prevalent in the 11 to 12-year-olds. Need to find out what this age group require, and see what can be done to address this issue. CHS do follow up on Cheshire Police twitter feeds in the belief that can act as a deterrent in some way.
Future Meetings:-

Tuesday 8th October 3.30pm to 5.30pm, CHS
