L’Dub BMX Club meets at a previously disused park in the Henacre Estate in Lawrence Weston, near Bristol. The estate has a high number of young offenders, with drug abuse, theft and vandalism all rife in the neighbourhood. This has resulted in Avon and Somerset Police highlighting “recurring issues of gangs causing anti-social behaviour” as one of their top priorities. |

Hounslow Hawks Basketball Club runs from Heston Community School in the West London Borough of Hounslow. The ward of Heston has been highlighted in the borough as it is in the 20% most deprived areas in England, with 1 in 3 children living in poverty (Hounslow Health Profile 2008) and rising youth anti-social behaviour (a 10% rise 2001-2004). |
