✨ FASHION IS A PASSION - Round 2 ✨

From plastic bags to fabulous hair & makeup… our young people have been turning the unexpected into some seriously couture creations! 💋👗🛍️

What’s youth group really about?

Well… sometimes it’s a game of tag, sometimes it’s a giant pile-on 😂😂 and sometimes it’s just absolute chaos!

But underneath all the fun, youth group is about so much more.

It’s about having a place where you can feel safe to be yourself.

A place to make friends, have a laugh and belong.

A place where you can be empowered, supported and listened to.

A place to learn, try new things, make mistakes and try again.

A place where young people can grow in confidence, discover who they are and know that they matter.

Yes, our photos might just look like a bunch of lads… but they also capture something bigger: friendship, belonging, confidence, joy and being part of a community. 🫶

Youth group isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being you with people who have your back. ❤️

GCSE Results Day – We’re Proud of You!

To all the young people getting their GCSE results today, whatever is in that envelope, we’re proud of you! 🎉

Today might bring excitement, relief, disappointment, nerves, or a whole mix of emotions and that’s okay. You don’t have to feel a certain way or have everything figured out today.

Parents, carers and families, give your young person the space to process whatever they’re feeling. Listen, be there for them and remind them that one set of results does not define who they are or what their future can look like.

There’s plenty of time to think about what comes next.

For today, celebrate the journey, be kind to yourselves and remember that you’re not alone. ❤️

Good luck everyone! Whatever your results, we’re cheering you on! 🌟

Friday was a little bit chill, a whole lot of music and a little bit mucky! 😂🎸🌱

We had some of the gang just chilling out, some finding their inner rockstar 🎤🤘 while others were getting stuck into the garden and showing off their green fingers! 🪴

Proof that youth group has something for everyone… whether you’re destined for the stage or the potting shed! 😂

What a brilliant bunch! ❤️
