Youth workers use the facilities on the mobile to provide planned activities, information, advice and support for young people between the ages of 13 – 19 across the borough.  The mobile is fully accessible to all and has an on-board wheelchair lift.

The mobile provides a place where young people can safely meet their friends whatever the weather, participate in activities and projects with the support of youth workers.  There is opportunity for young people to gain a variety of accreditations through participation in youth work activities. 

The mobile is equipped with a small kitchen area, TV, DVD and games console.  It has a wide range of both educational and leisure games and a variety of sporting equipment.  The mobile does not have any toilet facilities, but has heating and electricity provided by an on-board generator.
