The City of Brampton is in the process of creating a new Community Youth Hub at Century Gardens Recreation Centre. In 2023, the City opened its first Youth Hub at Susan Fennell Sportsplex. These Youth Hubs will serve as youth-centric spaces that act as a one-stop shop for services and activities for youth ages 14 to 29.

The 3200 sq. ft. Lawn Bowling Club facility will be demolished to make way for a new 12,500 sq. ft. building that will house the youth hub. The space will feature youth-oriented design and activities, including games and e-sports, creative space, meeting rooms, spaces for organizations to deliver a variety of services to youth, and more. Outdoor amenities include an amphitheatre, community gardens, basketball court and the Atiba Hutchinson soccer court, which is now open.

To make sure the Youth Hubs are created to serve the needs of youth, the City of Brampton launched an extensive consultation with youth and youth service providers to obtain input on how to design and program these spaces. The consultation period has concluded. View the report here​.
