Our Youth Sessions 

Our free youth sessions provide a safe and friendly space for children and young people to meet their friends, try out different activities and seek support from our experienced youth workers. We are a youth-led provision, and we aim to respond to the changing needs and interests of the young people attending our sessions.

 

If you would like to find out more about our sessions or arrange to see the space and speak to one of our youth workers before attending you can contact us by emailing [email protected] or calling 01670 857167. 

Creative Mondays returns!

This Autumn join in our relaxed creative club for ages 13-18 on Mondays between 17:30-19:30 at YMCA Northumberland. Our first session will be a relaxed session with pizza and creative tasters. 

Sessions are completely FREE and open to anyone- if you’re willing to try new things and interested in finding fun ways to express yourself, we want you!

Build your confidence and develop new skills, have fun and show your creative spark!

This project is in collaboration with Mortal Fools, a Theatre and Creative Learning Charity based at YMCA Northumberland.

      • Share what makes you unique with song writing and zine making.
      • Develop your skills and confidence through film making and drama games.
      • Show your personality with badge making and tie dye.
      • Meet people with similar interests and make new friends.
      • Get your ideas heard and express what matters to you!
      • The group will get the option to show what they’ve made at our end of year showcase!
