Youth activities

What's On

There are many FREE activities and drop ins for school age children and young people organised by Communities, Lifelong Learning and Employability. 

In 2026 we asked people what they thought of our activities and we will use this information to help us plan in the future. If you have any ideas of what you would like to see please let us know.
