Club Youth is our youth club. It opened on Friday 3 November 2023. It's for young people in the local area aged between 11 years and 16 years old (school years 7 - 11), and is open from 6.30 pm to 8.30 pm on Fridays during term time. We charge just £1 entry. The Club provides a safe, welcoming space for young people to meet and take part in a range of activities such as: table tennis, basketball, pool, table football, arts and crafts.
There's a comfortable lounge area with a canteen serving inexpensive snacks and free drinks. Young people are free to do what they wish.
Safeguarding is vital. Two youth workers are always present, along with our organiser, and we also employ a Doorman for security. All are DBS checked, as is the Lead Volunteer Youth Worker and Safeguarding Officer for the club.
We were delighted to be given a £5,000 grant by MoPC in August for Club Youth equipment - more in Acknowledgements
We're keen for young people to help us run the Centre - see our poster seeking young people. Do get in touch if you (young person up to 24 years) or your child could join in.
