Hi

My name’s Núria Jaén and I live in the south of England. I like the area where I live, so I want to improve it.

In my opinion young people spend all their time hanging around on the street. There are sometimes problems with vandalism and graffiti. As a result, there isn’t anywhere for young people to go and there aren’t any facilities for them.

I think the council should do something about this. I’m sure they must have a some land which local people can use for a youth café.

JENNIFER LAWRENCE

Oscar-winning superstar and nice girl

Hunger Games star Jennifer Lawrence is everywhere this month. I love English gas some ideas on how succeed like Jennifer...

Make the right decisions...
Most actresses, if offered role in the Hunger Games, would say "Yes!" without hesitation. Not Jennifer Lawrence. She was worried that being famous would change her. She thought about the offer for three days, before accepting. Like Katniss in the films, Jennifer became a superstar overnight. But happily, she hasn't changed at all!

Give 100 per cent...
To prepare for her role in the Hunger Games, Jennifer worked very hard. She trained in archery four times a week, learnt tree and rock climbing, and had fitness and combat coaching. "If I look exhauseted in the movie, that's definitely real," she says smiling.
