Our sessions are starting to return in person, but they will be a little different to normal...

Keeping children and young people safe when they visit our sessions has always been of huge importance, but is even more of a priority for us at this time.

We are following guidance published by the National Youth Agency in order to open our sessions as safely as possible – the most up to date guidance can be found here: http://www.nya.org.uk

For the meantime, sessions will need to be booked in advance, will be restricted with smaller numbers and will be mainly project/specific activity based to reduce movement of young people between rooms and mixing of ‘bubbles’. We appreciate that this type of session is much more restrictive than we would normally like to offer, but we hope to be able to return to our normal sessions soon.

All members will need to have a new membership form completed and have read the Youth Club session update document →

 

Attendance at sessions must be booked in advance – young people will not be able to turn up without booking. All sessions must be booked here: https://www.picktime.com/youthclub

Please ensure attendee name is the name of the young person.
