What your organisation does

Our Organisation provides an outlet for local young people and their families to socialise through various mediums such as education, play and structured recreational activities. Essentially our group strives to provide a structured itinerary of activities which contribute towards the personal development of individuals in both a mentally and

physically capacity. While doing this we are also providing an alternative to 'on street recreation' with the added difficulties of being situated beside an interface and the conflict which this often creates. In furthermore of these key objectives our group seeks to maintain and develop our new premises for the use of both the young and older members of the community. The group runs and manages the premises so that the users derive the greatest benefit from their participation in any of the wide and diverse activities and recreations available organisation also endeavours to raise funds by way of donations, contributions, grants and other legal methods to contribute towards the continuation of these services. Our group will liaise with Parents and Carers , School teachers , Social Workers and other relevant statutory bodies where this will further the achievement and personal development of any group participants and their families.
