About 224, South Bristol's Youth Zone

The design will provide a space that is inspirational and recognisable while also accommodating the requirements for first-class facilities in sports, arts, performance and enterprise. Named 224 (standing for today, tomorrow and forever) by young Bristolians, South Bristol’s Youth Zone will enhance the local area by providing a destination for local young people. It will be a state-of-the-art space with over 20 activities to try each session, staffed by skilled youth workers who believe in young people and help them see what they could achieve.
