Holiday Drop-In
Each summer holidays we like to offer some holiday drop-in sessions. These are for any young person who is already attending our normal sessions.
They include games and fun activities in a safe space, hanging out with friends.
We also provide a cooked lunch at a time when there are no school meals at each session.
We hope this facility will grow in the future.
