Youth Clubs and Groups

What to expect

Youth clubs provide somewhere to go, something to do, and a safe and supervised place to hang out. Some youth clubs and groups are run by trained youth workers, some are run by volunteers. All will be Disclosure and Barring Service checked.

The first time you go to a youth club or group, there will be a short registration form for your parent or guardian to complete to give you permission to attend.

In Fenland we are lucky to have some brilliant organisations running Youth Groups for children and young people across the local area. Here are a few of them. You can follow the links to find more in-depth information.
