Introduction
Tikkurila Youth Centre, also known as "Tiksin nuta," has operated on the premises of the Liito multi-purpose facility for young people since 2018. The youth centre is located near Tikkurila Railway Station. The youth centre offers a wide variety of recreational activities, including sports, cooking, arts and crafts, and games. The youth centre has a gym. We also have a gaming facility.
Safer space principles
The City of Vantaa’s youth centers have adopted safer space principles. The principles have been created together with young people. We want everyone to feel that they are safe and welcome in the youth centers. The goal is that nobody be subjected to any form of discrimination, bullying, harassment, or violence. This entails, first and foremost, active measures to prevent the above and intervening in situations where the above occurs.
