Ballyclare Youth Club '˜reopening soon'

Despite mounting speculation that Ballyclare Youth Club has closed indefinitely, officials have confirmed that efforts are still being made to ensure the centre is reopened to local young people.

According to a post on the club’s Faceboook page, the Doagh Road youth centre will be “reopening soon”. However, the site doesn’t say exactly when the facility will be back in business.

While the centre remains closed, the Youth Office has put alternative provisions in place to enable club members to attend other local youth facilities.
