A NEW website aimed at young people in the borough has been launched by Testway Housing, Test Valley Borough Council and DLO Andover.

The site, at www.justusteens.org was put together by the organisations with the help of young people. Testway Housing allowed the use of its in-house IT department and DLO Andover offered staff time for the project.

DLO web author Moya Sofianos said: "We've been involved in an advisory role to help pull everything together." The website offers information on fashion, education, sport and leisure, music, health, accommodation as well as games and a what's new section.

Up to 15 young people have been involved in developing the site.

Karen McNamara, Test Valley's youth and childcare development officer, said: "We want to make as many people aware of the site as possible.

"The young people have come up with ideas about what they want and we're continuing to develop this with various groups of young people so it meets their needs."
