Children & Youth
Our Children and Youth Projects are designed to provide a safe, welcoming environment where children, young people and families can learn, grow and have fun together. Through a range of activities, events and support programmes, we aim to reduce holiday hunger, encourage healthy lifestyles, promote learning and creativity, and create opportunities for families to connect with one another. By removing financial barriers wherever possible, we help ensure every child has the opportunity to take part, make lasting memories and reach their full potential.
School Holiday Food Provision
Our School Holiday Programme provides children and families with a safe, welcoming place to enjoy healthy meals, learn new skills and have fun during the school holidays. Throughout half terms and the summer holidays, we provide packed lunches and hot meals alongside cooking sessions, games, educational activities and interactive workshops. The programme helps reduce holiday hunger while encouraging healthy lifestyles, learning, creativity and positive experiences for local children and young people.
Parent Toddler Group
Our Parent and Toddler Group takes place every Thursday from 11:00am until 12:30pm, providing a friendly and welcoming space for parents, carers and young children to learn, play and connect with others. Through themed play sessions, creative activities, songs, stories and seasonal events, families can build confidence, develop new skills and form lasting friendships, while children enjoy fun, engaging experiences that support their early development.
Trips and Days out
Our Trips and Days Out programme gives children and families the opportunity to enjoy free educational visits, outdoor activities and memorable experiences throughout the year. From local farms, museums and places of interest to picnics in local parks and community activities, each trip is designed to encourage learning, build confidence and strengthen family relationships. The programme helps ensure that families who may not otherwise have the opportunity can take part in enriching experiences, creating lasting memories while exploring, learning and having fun together.
