An examination of what 11-18 year olds do with their time when they are out of school and their views on the new concept of Make Space clubs.

Make Space for Young People is one of the most important studies undertaken for the Nestlé Family Monitor. It examines in detail what young people of secondary school age do out of school and looks, in particular, at the problems of boredom and its links with anti-social behaviour, sometimes crime.

The second part of this report tests a solution to the problem of those young people who often have ’nowhere to go’ and ’nothing to do’.

In this research, the concept of ’Make Space’ clubs is explored and the needs of young people established.
