Today marks the start of Youth Week, a celebration of the talent, creativity, and voices of young people.

We are celebrating with a series of activities happening throughout the week for young people aged 12-24 to get involved, express themselves, and connect with others. And the best part? It’s all free.

Join us for Youth Week DIY Crafts events, organised in collaboration with local young people. These two relaxed and creative afternoons offer the perfect opportunity to unwind, try something new, or work on your own craft projects. Attendees can bring their own materials or take advantage of a selection of supplies provided at the events. Light snacks will be available to keep you energised while you work on your latest creation.
