We offer a range of free activities for young people aged 11-18 years. These are fully funded by the National Lottery Community Fund, the Police and Crime Commissioner’s Operation Payback Scheme, the Together Fund, the Community Foundation, and the Masonic Charitable Foundation. Our activities aim to boost health and wellbeing, raise self-esteem, and help young people try new things.
We offer evening, day, and residential experiences. These help young people face challenges and reduce stress.
Evening activities include:
-
Bowling
-
Quasar laser
-
Kayaking
-
Power-boating
-
Cycling
-
Music club
-
Drama

Other creative arts
Young people can spend weekends in bunk-barns for day and residential activities. Or in youth hostels in places like Northumberland and the Lakes . Here they can take part in fun outdoor pursuits like coasteering and ghyll scrambling.
Young people can join our Steering Group, which plans, budgets for, and evaluates all activities. They meet every other Monday from 5.00 to 7.00 pm. This group is key in shaping the charity’s work. They are also key in addressing the real needs of young people while improving their overall wellbeing.
