I listened to the young people of Pewsey speaking on Wiltshire Radio regarding their concerns as to where they could meet up when The Shak closes.

I feel that by closing The Shak, Wiltshire Council has let our young people down.

I worked as a youth leader in the 1980s and 1990s and all the youngsters wanted then was somewhere to hang out with friends. Things have not changed and youngsters today just want somewhere to go to meet up with friends and chill out. By closing The Shak the council must expect groups of young people to congregate in public spaces with all that that entails.
