Our HOME ED HUB for young people aged 11-18 is now set up for bookings through the EEQU website!

The first time you register you will complete details about your young person but after that it holds your details for you.

https://eequ.org/book/youth-works-home-education-hub-with-youth-works-northamptonshire-34722

At the Knibb, Montague Street, Kettering NN16 8AE
We will be offering 3 x 45 minute sessions between 11.30am & 1.45pm
First Block - Fridays between 18th September and 23rd October 2026

The cost will be Β£6 a session - with a 15% discount for every 3 sessions booked

Bookings are for a block of sessions as there will be some continuation from week to week.

We also plan to link these sessions to the AQA Unit Award Scheme, allowing learners to build a portfolio of certificates that formally recognises their skills, knowledge, and experience.

If you would find it financially challenging to pay for a block of sessions in one payment please email Natachi at [email protected] and she will arrange for you to pay half now and half later.

If your family is in receipt of Universal Credit we may be able to offer free places - please email Natachi at [email protected] and she will be able to let you know if we have any bursary places available and how to apply.

Our min group size will be 4 and max group size 8, apart from social / lunch session where 2 groups come together

There will be space for parents to stay onsite if they wish, including a quiet place to work - but it is not a requirement for an adult to stay.

Our sessions are:
11.30am - 12.15pm

πŸŽ‰ Celebrating 20 Years of Youth Works Northamptonshire! πŸ’š

Last week, we welcomed friends of Youth Works to CafΓ© Oak for a very special evening celebrating 20 years of Youth Works Northamptonshire.

We were joined by volunteers, commissioners, partners, supporters and friends who have all played a part in our journey over the past two decades. It was a fantastic opportunity to share memories and reflect on how far Youth Works has come since 2006!

We heard speeches from Cindy, Jane, David, Heath and Matthew, Rosie, and our wonderful patron James Acaster, each reflecting on Youth Works’ journey over the past 20 years.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us at CafΓ© Oak and to everyone who has supported us along the way.πŸ’š
