My name’s Tania and I’m sixteen. I live in a small village outside Manchester. There isn’t a cinema here and there aren’t any music venues. There’s a primary school in the village but there isn’t a secondary school. I go to school in Manchester. There is a sport centre in the village, and it’s got some football pitches. We play football there. There a good bus service into Manchester. There are some activities for teenagers in the village. The big problem is that there aren’t any shops at all!
