Wow, what a busy and exciting summer we had! We ran drop-in sessions for young people on the Rec throughout the summer, family play sessions, cookery workshops, circus skills workshops, a bus trip to support young people to access Cirencester, an end of summer BBQ and also attended community days and events in the town. It was wonderful to see how well the activities were received, the numbers that attended and the variety of things on offer in Tetbury this summer for children and families. We have had some fantastic feedback and are already excitedly planning our October and Christmas holiday events so watch this space!
We are extremely proud to announce that we have won the Gloucestershire HAF Award for the Best Family Event 2023 for the two Play Sessions that we ran in August.
Back to our regular youth club sessions, we are excited for the year ahead and can announce 2 new weekly sessions for young people in Tetbury. We will be offering a Year 7 session on a Thursday in the Dolphins Hall which will focus on supporting their transition into Secondary School and offering a safe space for them to gather and socialise with access to trusted adults. We are also opening our doors for 1 hour, straight after school on a Tuesday, where we will be running a “tea & toast” drop-in Youth Cafe for any young people wanting to come and chat about their day, anything that is on their mind or just to have a safe space to come and be.
We would like to welcome Mikala Gatley to our team who is well known in the community and brings a wealth of knowledge and experience of working with young people.
All sessions are free to attend, there is no need to book, we just ask young people or parents to complete a contact form on their first visit to us. Young people are free to come and go during sessions.
