Parking is a worry as many white vans & builders ignore hazards such as parking within white lines on corners forcingdrivers to be on the wrong side of the road causing chaos! The police do not appear to be enforcing the law! Table tennis is good for youngsters to teach co-ordination & could be taken up at a youth club also many table tennis clubs open during one day a week and retired fit people enjoy this game playing mostly for fun.

The existing scout hut is out of date and possibly unsafe. It should be sold and proceeds put towards building a new one with some land in L.A. Scouts covers activities for pub. teenagers youth club issues and is already v. successful it could grow even more with new premises it would also show commitment to the yp in L.A. We definitely need a café with outside tables (for summer) away from traffic. Ideally a healthy fodd trendy place but down to earth and not too expensive. This would double as a general facility + social meeting place for people who don't want to join an adult "organised" activity. There is no proper tennis club or coaching for young people aged 14 and over. If you're between 14 - 18 there is no suitable tennis pavillion altho' the courts are there.

People who choose to live in a village shouldn't expect the leisure facilities of a town and I pay more than enough Council tax as it is! We need enough facilities for young people to prevent nuisance behaviour, but not so much as to attract young people from outside Long Ashton. Apparently this has happened in Backwell, with outsiders causing disturbance. Leylandii hedge just past the Little Tipple is a nuisance: Iam angry the owner has let this hedge grow so wide. A full width pavment is needed here for mums with small children and the elderly. Speed cameras would get vandalised.
