The Services for Young People (SfYP) Positive Pathways summer activity programmes will be run by qualified SfYP Youth Workers and will focus on how young people can stay safe, learn new skills and make informed decisions. The programmes will involve fun activities and interactive workshops that will help young people to improve their confidence and social skills, be more resilient and able to overcome challenges in their lives.

Young people will have the opportunity to take part in fun physical activities such as sports, dance and team games, get creative with arts and crafts, music production and cooking, meet and socialise with other young people and get free healthy food every day.

Young people can learn archery and compete in fun games, tackle a woodland balance course and explore nature in the beautiful woodlands.
