A YOUTH music night held by five enterprising teenagers was such a success it is being held again this week.
The alcohol-free and no smoking event for 13 to 17-year-olds took place for the first time last Friday.
It was organised by Shelley Harper, Roxanne Leonard, Jodie Rich, Nicola Burne, and Clare Franklin.
The 16-year-olds who call themselves The Cellar Project are holding the next event on Friday at the same venue, Worcester Arts Workshop, Sansome Walk.
The idea was mooted when Jodie's mother, Angie Rich, who is co-ordinating The Detached Project, a project which responds rapidly to anti-social behaviour, met the girls.
Shelley, Roxanne, Nicola and Clare are pupils of Blessed Edward Oldcorne RC High School, Bishop Perowne School, Nunnery Wood High School and Christopher Whitehead High School, respectively.
"It was a really good night," said Mrs Rich.
"We had more than 60 people in the club, and we had a lot of positive feedback. People said it was good fun and they loved the building.
The Safer Worcester Partnership, a multi-agency organisation committed to tackling crime and disorder in Worcester, has already given the scheme a £1,500 grant.
For tickets, which cost £3, ring 01905 722361, or buy them on the door, or from the girls at their schools.
