Our Friday Evening Youth Club will be a safe, welcoming and free-to-attend space for neurodiverse young people aged 14-20. It is designed to provide fun, active, social, and skill-building experiences in a supportive environment.

The club will fun weekly on Fridays during term time from 6pm-8pm and will be facilitated by experienced sports and arts professionals who lead structured activities each week. We

We aim to accommodate the needs of all participants, though we cannot provide 1:1 support.

Parents and carers are welcome to remain on-site in the café area, but this is young people’s time only, and parents will not be involved in the session activities.

Each session is structured to give choice and flexibility, with:

Two staff members per session:

One leading an active sports activity

One leading a creative or arts-based activity

A quiet space available at all times for unfacilitated activity, allowing participants to self-regulate or engage in calmer options.

YOUNG PEOPLE SHAPE THE CLUB OFFER.

We encourage young people to help shape the club offer, so activities reflect what they

want to do and meet their needs. We will do this by checking in with young people and their

parents across the programme – the more engaged the young people are in curating the

space, the better we can provide them with a club they will love.

This session will take place outdoors in our beautiful courtyard outside of Walnut Grove cafe (unless weather conditions are not suitable, in which case class will run indoors).

As the sun lingers late into the evening, you’ll learn to craft refreshing, seasonal cocktails using fresh ingredients, summer flavours, and expert techniques. Guided by our mixologist, you’ll shake, stir, and sip your way through the session.

What to expect:
• A relaxed outdoor setting perfect for soaking up the solstice atmosphere
• Step-by-step guidance to create 2–3 signature summer cocktails
• Fresh herbs, fruits, and premium spirits
• A social, feel-good experience with music and sunset views

Whether you’re a cocktail enthusiast or just looking for a unique way to celebrate the season, this workshop is all about good drinks, great company, and unforgettable summer energy.
