Our priorities for Dorset (#4 of 4): Better support for children and young people

What a Green administration in Dorset would do

We will work with partners to raise standards in all schools in Dorset. We will aim to restore the network of youth services and youth clubs.

What Dorset Greens have done

✅ Highlighted the level of exclusions in schools serving our most deprived areas.

✅ Councillor Clare Sutton has repeatedly pressed for the restoration of funding for Youth Clubs, following swingeing cuts made by the previous Dorset County Council. Working primarily with an Independent Councillor, she has played a key role in the creation of a £100,000 annual Youth Fund and a soon-to-be-launched £100,000 fund to assist Youth Clubs survive the cost-of-living crisis.
