Youth Space (or Our Space)
Submitted by: Paul
Describe your idea. How does it work and who does it help?
This is a website that informs young people about social resources in their local area. The main aim is to counter youth crime and engage young people in their community by giving them a chance to interact with others in a positive way. It works by displaying all useful and relevant data in one location. It will help everyone.
What information or services do you need?
Maps, postcodes, neighbourhood, education, health stats etc

It would be great to include data on how young people can apply for funding to run their own projects locally.
That would benefit from mashing up the allocations to the Youth Opportunity Fund (already available) with the contact details of Youth Opportunity Funds as available in Direct.gov (not easily available as I noted here: http://timdavies.org.uk/2008/01/26/it-possible-mash-data-direct-gov)
