- Celia Hannon: Unwelcome generation with nowhere to go THIS year, we visited Sheffield to find out what young people who live there thought about their town centre. We met a group of teenagers who were tired of being moved along simply for gathering in groups. They told us that they attracted suspicion unless they were seen to be spending money or moving from A to B. It would seem that even in Sheffield, where the town centre has been transformed after years of regeneration, children and young people are less welcome than adults. from : williamhigham 15th November 2007
