RUSH 2The DEN is run by volunteers. Yes ALL of the 'staff' are volunteering their time effort and energy helping to prove this much needed opportunity for families in Rushden, Higham and the surrounding areas. We have limited resources and rely heavily on the very generous donations of time, equipment and money to make this possible. All our volunteers are DBS checked with years of experience working with children and young adults. YOUTH CLUBS
Regular age specific Youth Clubs in the evenings run throughout the year with the exception of bank holidays and Christmas holidays. During the daytime tots & pre-school children and their adults are able to enjoy daily activities with refreshments and a chat. BABIES, TOTS & ADULTS
Our Babies,Tots and Adults are open from 9.15am to 2.45pm for you to drop in and enjoy your quality time with your little ones around your routine. We aim to make all our Babies, Tots and Adult sessions accessible to all ages. Dad's Stay N Play is the first Saturday of each month followed by our very popular Swap Shop

In addition to our regular programme, Holiday Clubs are available and special events too. Some of our special events include:
Bike Maintenance Workshop
Parents First Aid Courses
Christmas Craft Fayre
Help with homework/coursework also available upon request.

A massive shout-out and a huge thank you to the awesome teams from National Grid and Larkin Homes Ltd.
You guys had a super busy week here at RUSH 2The DEN, and we really appreciate it.
And to all of you, thanks a bunch for your patience and understanding while they were digging up the path outside.

They had to do that to switch out our old single-phase electric for the new, beefier 3-phase system.

That 3-phase power is super important, as it's what's gonna keep our new upstairs rooms powered up and nice and toasty.

Plus, it's gonna help us stay cool in the summer and warm in the winter, which means we can finally go green with our solar panels!

That's going to be awesome for keeping a steady temperature all year round for everyone who comes to our building. Doesn't matter if you're here for Tots & Adults, Youth Club, kids' parties, the swap shop, or any of the other support services we're planning for our new rooms – you'll be comfy!.

Another awesome milestone!
Just a quick video here to give you the lowdown on how things are going at RUSH 2The DEN.

We're crossing our fingers to be back in our hall in about two weeks!

Larkin Homes Ltd still have a ton of work to do to get those upstairs rooms all set up, and we're still hustling with the fundraising.

Big thanks for all your support, seriously! ❤️ You can check out our GoFundMe here: https://gofund.me/893725f17

We're almost there, guys! We're super close to getting our Main Hall at RUSH 2The DEN back, and a HUGE shoutout to Larkin Homes Ltd for making it happen!
Now, we still need your help! This old building has really given us a run for our money, but honestly, I think you'll all agree it's gonna be totally worth all the hassle, the fundraising, and all the sweat and tears once it's finally finished!
We've still got some fundraising stuff going on, so please, spread the word!
Our next event is a table top sale at The Salvation Army, Church Street, Rushden. It's happening tomorrow, Saturday, October 10th, from 10 am to 12 pm.
You can also snag some tickets there for our Rushden Escape Rooms raffle, which we're drawing on November 28th.
Or, if you're feeling generous, you can always chip in on our GoFundMe page right here: https://gofund.me/6e33c07c2
