We are delighted to partner with Active Academy again this summer, bringing an inclusive area for teenagers to hang out with or alongside others while sharing their interests. The sessions are flexible and can be adapted to include any special interests or new things that the teenagers may like to try or share.

Available activities include reading zones, Lego, PS4 gaming, board games, art, beauty and fitness. The sessions are flexible and can be adapted to include any special interests or new things that the teenagers may like to try or share.
Places are limited, booking essential. 
 
Taster Sessions:  for ages 15-18 yrs
These short sessions offer participants the chance to try something new. If your teenager needs 1:1 support we would ask you to stay during these taster sessions.
