In 1987, 40% of the Wester Hailes population was under 21. The Sentinel ran a series of articles looking at the lack of provision for young people and the attempts being made locally to run clubs, activities etc.

Local resident Bill has been in Wester Hailes for 26 years, originally living in Clovenstone where he had his car stolen 8 times! Despite this there used to be a great community spirit in Wester Hailes and Bill tells a story of one of his experiences of being santa in the shopping plaza where a little girl asked for a lovely gift.
