We had a great Halloween party at Youth Club last night! 👻🎃 Spooky punch, brilliant costumes and lots of fun to round off our first term back after the summer!

A huge thank you to our wonderful volunteer Jake, who has been with us since our very first session. We’ll be sad to see him go, but wish him all the best with his move. Thank you, Jake, for all the time and support you’ve given our young people. You’ll be missed! 💚

Our Youth Club runs every Wednesday during term time for young people aged 14–25 with SEND. To find out more, email [email protected].

We're thrilled that Includes Us Too has been selected as one of the Co-op Local Community Fund causes!

Our youth club is so much more than just a Wednesday evening activity. It's a place where our young people can make friends, build confidence, learn new skills and, most importantly, be themselves without judgement. 🥰

And we'd love your help to keep making that happen!

🛒 **If you're a Co-op member, please choose Includes Us Too as your cause.**

It doesn't cost you anything extra, but your support could make a huge difference to our young people.

Today was finally the day we handed the keys back to our hub at 1500 Lower Pemberton

We were lucky enough to receive a rent and rates free package for this fabulous space, and we certainly made the most of it! From our fashion show and Vinted shop to parent workshops, our lending library and so much family support. Plenty of hard work, laughter and a few glasses of Prosecco too! 🥂

A huge thank you to everyone who helped us make it all happen, right through to the final van run!

We still have our office at the Rainbow Centre, and our groups and family support continue as usual. The search for our next hub is underway, and we’re hopeful it won’t be long!

Fee-fi-fo-fum… panto fun, here we come!

We’ve teamed up with Ashford Pantomime Blue Phoenix Productions for an exclusive relaxed performance of Jack and the Beanstalk for families with SEND

There’ll be fewer people, the lights will stay slightly on and you’re welcome to move around. You’ll also get a social story beforehand and meet the cast before the show starts, so everyone knows what to expect.

Laugh, shout out and enjoy the panto together, without worrying about sitting still and keeping quiet!
