Provisions & Activities Young People 13-19

Provisions and activities:

 

Girls group

A weekly girls group runs on Wednesday afternoons, providing a space for young girls to come together to access advice and guidance from the Connexions PA and youth worker in a group setting, and to take part in fun, recreational activities which will allow them to interact, relax and unwind from daily routine and problems. Each week we host different activities and sessions, taking into consideration the needs of the girls at different points of the year.

Recent activities include

Graffiti art workshop:  Girls gained an insight and hands on practical teaching in the practice of aerosol art from a trained graffiti artist.  

Job shop: Help and support for girls aged 16-25 to find and apply for work. The job shop is held every Thursday and girls can receive help with CV writing; application forms; interview technique and general careers guidance.

First aid: The course will teach key life-saving skills and provide an opportunity to learn first aid response to the most common accidents and life threatening situations  

Health drop-ins: Gain access to a nurse and discuss in full confidence any health related issues be it physical, mental or emotional support.
