READING
Read the text about activities for young people living in the countryside.
Then look at the sentences at the bottom of the article and decide if each
sentence is True or False.
Living in the countryside can be very difficult for teenagers. Their nearest
friend lives miles away and it's impossible to get into the town to go
shopping or attend a club. 13-year-old Fiona Timson, who lives in
Carneath in Wales, says 'Everyone else in my class seems to have such
interesting weekends. They meet each other by chance when they're out
shopping, and they decide there and then to do something cool together.
That never happens to me.'
Fiona's mum, Helen, realizes it's a problem. 'We moved here because it
was quiet and we knew we wouldn't have to worry about her going out
alone. But we possibly made the wrong choice. Fiona hardly ever leaves
home, not because she's scared, but because there is simply nowhere for
her to go. The village is tiny, and most of the people living here are old. I
can't drive her around because we only have one car, and my husband
uses it for work.' Fiona can't spend the evening with friends because the
last bus to Carneath is at ten past five in the afternoon. She even has to
leave her school orchestra practice early in order to catch it.
The Country Kids organization aims to help children like Fiona, and their
families. A grant from Country Kids gives families money for four taxi rides
per month, up to a distance of twenty - five miles each. This allows
children like Fiona to attend an after-school club once per week or visit
friends on Sundays. Country Kids also organizes trips to theatres and
sports events in nearby cities at weekends. The parents don't have to do
anything. A minibus comes directly to the house and picks the kids up.
To qualify for a grant from Country Kids, children must be between the
ages of eleven and sixteen, and live in a village with a population of less
than 1000 people. The village must be more than twenty miles from a
town. The family's income must also be below a certain level. For Fiona's
school friend Emma, who lives in nearby Dolbury with a population of 894,
it's perfect. Unfortunately, Fiona misses out. The population of Carneath is
1159.
The number of families applying to Country Kids for a grant is increasing,
and its president, Judith Sankey, is finding it more and more difficult to
find funding. 'There are so many great organizations looking for money. A
lot of people feel that curing diseases and helping animals is more
important than the work we do, so they prefer to give their money to them.

We're always worrying that we won't be able to carry on. But the families
we help really do appreciate what we do, so I hope the organization can
continue to run in the future.
