Dear Miss Ainsworth,

Please find attached the additional information requested, including the complete budget broken down by expenditure area.

Budgets are not specifically designated to youth people to spend but the lead workers at each centre are responsible for consulting their users when deciding what activities to run.

I hope this helps

Kind regards

Jamie Corner
