Renovation project sees teens give back

Youngsters seek to change perceptions

The Sea Terminal has enjoyed some cosmetic attention, thanks to a crack team of young people.

Teenagers who frequent Café Laare in Douglas have been taking part in a project to clean and decorate the building over the summer holidays.

The project has been organised by the Youth Service following reports of anti-social behaviour by young people gathering near the Lord Street cafe earlier this year.

Participants said they wanted to challenge the negative image of 'yobs' and 'troublemakers', and give something back to the local community.
