“Youth & the Survival Game in Britain (YSGB)”

We will be introducing shortly, an Online Column, which focuses on the extent to which many young people believe that they have to go to ‘survive’ in modern Britain. There will be a cross section of young people featured, including those who are socially excluded, normally hardest to reach and need sincere and meaningful persuasions to become a ‘stakeholder’ in modern Britain. The column will be published under the general theme of “Youth & the Survival Game in Britain (YSGB)”.    

The column will feature topics such as:

· Home and Families, including fostering and those in care

· School, college and university

· Training and jobs

· Recreational drugs uses

· The Criminal Justice System

· Civic and party political matters – Young people response to local and central government policies
