The document discusses regenerating a derelict industrial unit into a youth club to increase community involvement among those aged 11-18. A survey found that most people, especially those aged 17 or younger, are not involved in their community or regeneration efforts due to a lack of advertising and opportunities that appeal to their age group. Converting the eyesore property into a youth club would provide new opportunities to engage the target audience and encourage a healthier lifestyle while saving money and uniting the community.
