Youth services likely to be axed in county council cuts
SEVERAL services that support young people in Oxfordshire are like to be cut in a cost-cutting exercise by Oxfordshire County Council.
Cllr Keith Mitchell, Leader of Oxfordshire County Council, has said that: “Tough choices must be made about whether some services continue and how they are paid for.”
Items for consideration will include:
Abolishing the Chill Out Fund (grant funding for youth work in Oxfordshire)
Reducing the costs of the Youth Service
Abolition of the youth parliament
The council says it will reinvest
