What you said about things to do
I think that teenagers need more things to do in London. What are we meant to do? there should be some late night cafe or under 18s clubs. At night we are forced to sit in the cold on the street as there is nothing better to do. Then people wonder why London has such big crime rates!!!!!! Please can you make more things for us to do, we are bored!

I'm very bored. I love music yet is there any gigs I can legally go to without travelling to somewhere out of London for under 18s? There is nothing really to do in early evenings- and I don't want to start boozing or whatever but I'm so bored. I'm 14, any suggestions?

I want to say London has nothing for teens as I am a young woman I would like fun sports at a low price and London has a high crime rate and if u had some thing were young people can hang out and have fun with a safe place and adults to look out for us and teach us things that we can show teens u don't have to do crime to have fun and u can say I did that wen I was a kid. us teens have nothing to play with cause it cost to much and I think London has let its self down. I have to travel a far to have fun. I feel scared to go out and I went out to Streatham and I felt safe for once I had so much fun and the people you can talk to and the adults were really nice and help us so take ur self down there and that's how south London should be I really like if u took some notice of this from a young teen.

On the booklet it says that you recognise that we cant afford to go to many attractions in London, like shows and things like that, so you put offers for us on the web page, but I cant find any.

I have a few ideas on how to cut down on teenage crime and drinking. 1) I think the cinema ratings should be you can see any film above your age as long as you're with your parents. 2) Night clubs should corner off a part of the club for under 18s because at the moment us teenagers cant seem to do anything because you have to be over 18 to do most things so please consider this.

I think that Secondary Schools across London have nothing to do during their breaks. I think that something fun that all years would enjoy, for example, Secondary Schools should take their classes on more school trips. I think that educates young people. That makes their education and school life really FUN!
