ENCOURAGING youngsters to get involved in uniformed youth groups is the aim of a new initiative.

YOU Bromley launches tomorrow (February 6) with the opportunity for youths to experience what life in the organisations is like.

Activities available at the launch event at the Civic Centre, Stockwell Close, Bromley, include a climbing wall, marching band and vehicle displays and demonstrations of life-saving skills.

Groups involved in the scheme include the scouts, Met police volunteer cadets and St John Ambulance.

The launch event runs from 12pm to 4pm and is open to youngsters aged from 11 to 19 and their families.
