🎉 Fantastic News! 🎉

We are delighted to share that we have once again been awarded a grant from the Community Inclusion and Activities Team, which means our Youth Group for 12 to 18-year-olds with additional needs will continue to run for another year!

This funding will allow us to keep providing a safe, welcoming, and inclusive space where young people can make friends, build confidence, try new activities, and most importantly, have fun.

Our monthly sessions will continue to include:
✨ Fun craft activities
🎲 Games and social activities
🎉 Themed events throughout the year
🤝 Opportunities to build friendships and confidence in a supportive environment

We are excited to welcome both familiar and new faces over the coming year and look forward to creating many more wonderful memories together. 🙂
