TERM TIME ACTIVITIES We are thankful to say we now have Youth Sessions running across three sites of North West London. Our Covid trained youth workers will continue to be available for young people living in West Hendon, Grahame Park and Stonegrove.
We have a variety of sports that we play with young people, structured and messy play, arts & crafts, youth discussion, cooking, hair & beauty, and other youth centred activities. We are a youth led service provider including the wants and needs of the young people we serve into our sessions, by providing them with a safe space to share their thoughts and opinions with trusted youth workers through our youth forum. We enjoy taking young people on offsite trips and providing experiences for young people to visit places outside of their community with their friends.
